- Ever wonder what it is really like to intern at an architecture firm? It's always great to know what working in an architecture firm is like before you committed to majoring / studying in architecture. There are a lot of things I did not expect in the architecture firm. And what the architectural interns do vs. the licensed architects are completely different as well!! So today, I go over what it is really like working in an architecture firm.

You all probably dont give a shit but does someone know a way to log back into an Instagram account..?

@Bishop Jared instablaster =)
I been work as draftsman for almost 12years. My plan to apply on any Architect firm around England. Hopefully to get more info from ya thanks😘👍
detailing bathrooms omggg glad to know that's an international struggle for archi interns too lmao
Best job ever!!!
Hey I just wanna say you really inspire me to want to become an architect. It’s something I’ve always considered but now I’m considering it even more, I do know the journey won’t be easy but architect has always been something I felt like I needed to do. Like there’s this feeling and I feel like its perfect except adding more challenging things but it’s ok I rlly want to become a architect and I hope u continue your journey to becoming a great architect!!❤️❤️Much love for u and stay safe!
I’m so happy to hear that(:
Keep grinding keep going! You got this. It’s not always easy but you’ll love yourself later on, rather than be filled with a sense of regret, thinking you gave up too easily 🥰
During my internship, working 12 - 15 hours a day was considered normal. It was a small firm, so the workload was tremendous! But I feel like you learn way more at smaller firms than the bigger ones (since there aren't separate departments for drafting / modelling etc.).
Bro what where did you do your internship? That many hours is crazy.
my man you got exploited
This video is like an expectation session for all interns!! Great and very accurate description! 😍😍😍
Glad you think so!(:!
This is really interesting, I only found your channel today but can't stop watching 😅♥️
Welcome!! Glad you enjoyed the video(:
Thank you ! Was debating whether I should jump into the field. Sounds like a lot of work. It’s not bad, just doesn’t excite me in the least! Really appreciate the video :)
Great video, I’m hoping to have my first internship this summer :) and omg congrats on 10k u deserve it so much!!
Best of luck Kaye!!!! Where do you want to intern?
Never had I seen a human sweeter than this.....Salute
Not too late but I've actually been looking for a video like this I think I've only seen one other video thank you so much I love your videos so much 💗💖❤💜💕 from your archi student 💗💓💖💛💕❤
Glad I could help! ❤✨ Always love your comments. You make me smile hahah
Congratulations 🎆 for 10k 🌻✨❤️
Thank you so much ❤️❤️
I’m an undergrad & I’m definitely looking for internships!! I will keep u updated lol
Will be doing my practise starting tomorrow. Cant wait to do bathroom details too 😍
Best of luck!!
hahaha omg I totally get the bathroom detail thing - I was there once! it'll get better soon :)
Yes! Thank you!
Hey wow 10 k without a notice .. great growth within a month 😍💥❤️
Thank you so much 😀
This is great to know as I’m going to be starting my intern here shortly as I’m in finding my AA
Where would you like to intern!
@@UnravelingArchitecture AZD Architecture would be the dream. But looking at a smaller place near me, KES Homes.
Great 👌
I'm a year late to comment I guess :) However, my experience as a trainee was completely different: I designed some stuff on my own with almost complete freedom, I rendered my designs, I helped with an important PowerPoint presentation, I joined meetings with clients and landscape engineers (just to learn how it goes, but I ended up giving my opinion and a challenge they faced and they seemed to appreciate it), etc. That being said, I think I was able to benefit a lot because the firm was well known in my country yet it was a small firm where everyone works on various things. If I had interned at a large firm, I would've probably drew construction drawings and bathroom details :)
Hello, love your channel, Can you do tips about Researching Architecture Firms please thanks
can someone explain what bathroom detailing is lol
im 16 and i think im very creative. i have always been into designing stuff whether it was minecraft, making music, or doing wood tech. I LOVE working with my hands and being creative, but I don't know if i should go into architecture or an engineer or whatever. do you get to be hands on as an architect?
But like artistic sculpture in wood? Or houses and some miniature models?
As an architecture student for sure - a loooot of models,
later rather computer programs... but of course like everything - it depends.... there are tons of options, you can "produce" things when you finish school.
I guess studying gives a "sense of form" and better understanding of design (of course with the focus on architecture, its history construction, rules etc.), and an opportunity to get some feedback on your ideas (not only from professors, also other students, friends).
You can check out creating models in computer programs - what do you think about it, do you enjoy it if you haven't tried yet. (CAD, Blender, 3DS,... btw it's a nice point in resume)
You can also try to work as a volunteer or intern during summer in the jobs which you consider as an option for the future job - 16 is not too early to do it... (it's not working for free - you learn and observe professionals or if not accepted at least find out what the requirements are ;) )
If you plan to be a boss then think about permissions (you know.. like some jobs require having degree,, some don't, studing is a way to get a degree, knowledge you must find on your own, and earning a living is yet another thing...)
:) hope it will make a bit of sense :)
@@karolinagrabowska3456 thanks for the tips, yes i do plan on being more than a boss in the future,i appreciate it
❤❤
Can you do
a video on how to alter a normal elevation in photoshop :)
as in drawing elevations?
I was discussing this thing with one of my friend 🤘
Btw in India we had the selection test for b.arc today
I hope your selection test went well!!! Let us know how it went!
Sure and soon !! 😊
Architectural Technician here!
You talked about a hatred of model making... I honestly dislike model making so much- I much prefer 3D CAD and 2D CAD rather than physical model making...
the nice thing about working is that many firms nowadays outsource all their models
Ooh! I love this video! Umm...that’s not what I do during a 24hr period. Very boring day. Spend most of my time calling consultants, checking drawings, checking building codes, blah blah blah.... yawn. Lol. Maybe we are romanticizing Architects. I love movies that make us look amazing!
Building codes 😭😭😭😭
you said you were doing constuction documents and drawing background details 3 times with same hype, you sending any secret message?
Hi ,I am preeti from India .I had done B Arch and planning for Masters. I am so confused what to do. How I can contact You.
I'm at my first year architecture university and i'm really doubting myself if i can do architecture or not . Can you make a video on something like that ?
Sure thing! First year is always tricky. Don’t fret too much and enjoy the little things you learn along the way (:
@@UnravelingArchitecture thanks for giving advice ! I'll be sure to implement that.
(๑˃̵ ᴗ ˂̵)و
Jan 9th is my first day very nervous
Hope it's going well!!!
Hi, So are there any non certified architects that work there? I am trying to decide if I should go back to school or if I can work at an Architect Frim without it. I have an engineering background.
You can still work at a firm without being an architect but it'll affect the pay.
Do you think it’s worth it to get a masters degree in architecture? The program I’m looking at is 5 year bachelors and one more for masters
You need to get your education components out of the way. So if you go to an undergrad university that is not accredited you will need to get a masters. I talk about it more here: czcams.com/video/dCqqiLtHXK4/video.html
Now of course this is only if you want to become a licensed architect in the states though!!
How did you find out everything you know
experience haha talking with others, classes, schools, networking, etc
So most of the archi firms uses Revit more than Autocad this days?
yes in my experience absolutely. AutoCAD has been seen as an "outdated" program by many
@@UnravelingArchitecture Ow thank you, I'm started to learning revit at home after office hours everyday ☺️
Hi gurl I just wanna know how much is the salary for an intern 😁
Revit and Enscape FTW
Can u say some arch firm name? I dont think u can do that, but i live in CT and i want to try to get in one, but idk any, also can u do a video about what we need to get into? Portfolio?? Etc pls. Thank you
Hey, Mariam!!
I have a playlist for portfolios czcams.com/play/PLSEDfb2Gvrk-wGQ1Sgk7rDYxj8ayqvELC.html
And here’s an internship guide: czcams.com/video/2Z4ZyU3Atjc/video.html
@@UnravelingArchitecture oh thank you i will watch it
Was this a paid internship and if so how much was the pay?
It was paid! Most interns start at $15 but others start at $18! Some can make to $22/hr (but many in this pay bracket have previous architecture experience!)
Hope that helps (:
@@UnravelingArchitecture yeah this helped thank you.
Well, then better to get into Architectural Photography 🙄😂😂
Good thing about being an intern though is you can sleep at night
yes that is so valid hahahah. There's less pressure on your shoulders too
Life of interns:
Birth
Designing bathrooms & drafting
Death😂😂😭
basically!!!
