Connect How did your love story begin?

We met over blueprints and coffee in the hum of the architectural office. At first, it was small—shared pencils, late-night deadlines, quiet laughs over design quirks. One rainy evening, stuck revising a model, our hands brushed, and everything shifted. Coffee turned into dinners, drafts into dreams. Now, every building we design carries a piece of us—lines of love hidden in steel and glass, proof that between sketches and structures, we built something beautiful together.

What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?

On our last night in Croatia, we found a quiet seaside tavern, the scent of grilled fish drifting through the warm air. We shared a whole branzino, crisp-skinned and tender, with lemon and olive oil. Laughter danced between sips of wine as the sun melted into the Adriatic. Every bite tasted of salt and summer. As the waves whispered goodbye, we held hands across the table, grateful—full not just from the meal, but from the memory we’d carry home.

What would you do with $20,000?

If we won $20,000, we’d smile at each other, knowing exactly what to do—tuck it away for our future home. No big splurges, just steady saving. We’d open a joint account, track every dollar, dream over coffee about sunlit kitchens and cozy corners. Each saved cent would bring us closer to our goal. Together, we’d turn that prize into a foundation—not just for a house, but for the life we’re building, side by side, with love and a shared vision leading the way.
