    As a 4th year architecture student (so very much at the start of my career) I just have to say that many take this profession way too seriously and childishly make it black and white, unpassionate and obsessed. Architecture is a very big part of my life I couldn’t run from, even if I wanted to, but life is not that serious. It is NOT normal to cry in critiques, stamping on students’ confidence is NOT helping them. You can be a great architect and have a life around it, intertwined with it. It’s masochist and counterintuitive to even think otherwise. Improving is about healthy critique and motivation to grow. Not about thinking that no matter what you do, you will always be subpar, trying to crawl up nonetheless and putting others further down on the way. If great architects are something grand and above everyone, how are they supposed to be creating amazing designs for the masses when they have never even experienced life outside their career? To me, architecture is a meltingpot of universal knowledge, curiosity, creativity and life experience.

      It’s the Pareto Principle at work. It applies to virtually all professions. Hierarchy is the [unfortunate] reality of this entire game.
      The top 20% of people create 80% of the best products or services (and the top 20% of that 20% creates 80% of that subset’s output, etc etc). There will always be an elite class who earn the vast majority of income, project bids, praise, & legacy.

      I agree it gets all very intense, but I think is a way to mimic what profesional life will demand on architects. To work for so many unpaid hours one has to be slightly obsessed with the profession, If your working mates stay long hours and you don’t…one comes across as indifferent, and very likely the wont want you in that practice. Good luck with your career. Is one of the best ones one can get!

      From experience, the "design high" was more likely from inhaling too much model making glue and not enough sleep. Architecture really needs to catch up to the realities of human physiology and creatvity, you need rest and you need a good environment to perform optimally and more importantly, avoid mistakes which could hurt people.

    Sorry guys I am an architect myself, but there are certain things that I do not agree here. This sense of 'struggling'' to design, as an example. Great designs is not about struggling it should flow, this idea of being proud to be 'busy', working 'hard', sleeping anywhere among the mess mostly unable even to have a shower, c'mon this is horrible! This selfish approach to make architecture an intense discipline. In the end your well being, who you are reflects in the architecture you design, and eventually the city environment itself. Sorry....

      Maybe the problem is that they’re trying to create something beautiful through an ugly lens: Modern architecture. Maybe if they spent less time trying to create something “vogue” and _unearthly_ and instead spent more time channeling their humanity and intuitive sense of beauty, rather than this “dude weed lmao” ‘Architecture’ which is more an exploration of metaphysics than an actual building, then they’d have an easier time channeling their talents into designing structures.

    This video makes me a little sad and overwhelmed but also relieved. There is so much to learn and plenty of things that could be unlearned. The notion of "star architect" and design competitions take away from helping students advance and become better designers. The desire to gain recognition and validation gets in the way of "thinking clearly".
    I liked how one student described what a good critique is. I couldn't agree more.
    The stereotype and acceptance of that architects are masochists is pretty depressing. I don't know about all of you but my dream is not to spend most of my days locked away in an office (goofing off or not). How can you think clearly if you're not taking care of your health? Justifying it under the guise of passion seems a little bit deceiving.
    I find the quote "If you don't like something, do something about it" in this video, ironic. The conflict lies in "don't give up on your dreams" vs. "your dream is about your client". The reality is that it's not just about you. The notion of the star architect is not about being a good designer; but about fame and appealing to the crowd. The other reality is as one student pointed out, you miss out a lot of things working on your own. People - you can't live with them but you definitely can't live without them. It's a balancing act in all cases.

    I'm not an architect, but I have been in construction for the majority of my life ( I'm 45 years old).
    The biggest suggestion that I could probably make to these students, or anyone aspiring to become an architect ( because it use to be a dream of mine, and why I'm here) is to get a job with a construction company.
    Actually get out and "build" buildings, and or houses between semesters.
    This may help give you a better understanding of materials used, and how the whole process works "from the other end".
    Getting a job in construction might not be everyone's forte, but it definitely couldn't hurt.

      As an architect who came from a ‘ construction family’ of generations I can say it gives you immense confidence once working in an office. You are 10 years ahead and know ‘how things get done’ on site. Didn’t help in arch school whatsoever though. The years of poor sleep eventually force all the wafflers to become decision makers. The pay is absolutely terrible , there are ten times as many archs as needed in the marketplace.

    Having gone through this discipline (30 juried critiques in 5 years) I would say that a good critique depends largely on the panel of instructors or visiting architects who review one's work. Some provide valuable insight; others waste your time with their bombast and posturing as they use your jury to show you how smart they are. I also would like to add that there is still a place in architecture for those with idealism and a benevolent sense of applied aesthetics. The world needs people with dedication to bring imagination and the application of a body of knowledge to solving people's problems.

    This doc is a perfect vid to tell the aspiring to be students the need of the passion for architecture to be an architect.
    Don't take architecture half-assed since it wouldn't take you anywhere, take it seriously, it would surprise where it would take you. I'm someone who went in and realise this isn't for me and regretted later why I pushed myself to finish the school even this is not my passion. But I'm thankful for my school for it taught me the skills of how to perceive my surroundings critically and later to solve a problem efficiently by creativity, which I could use in any kind of field of work.
    Think twice when you wanna be an architect, since it would literally require you to change your lifestyle and dedicate yourself fully, when it is not passion you have, it would likely become a torture for yourself later.

    This is truly one of the most inspiring architecture documentaries I have ever seen. It gives a very accurate representation of the architecture studio life and culture. It encourages further discussion about the grand ideas of architecture and raises important questions of “what is architecture” and “how should it be taught?”. It also helps to explain to outsiders why we put ourselves through such scrutiny time and time again.
    This documentary also helped to justify some of my personal feelings toward architecture including the constant struggle, doubt, and fear. I have come to realise that these negative feelings are imperative to the design process in that they accompany the passion and internal strengths that emanate once these struggles have been overcome. The design struggle is real and powerful and inevitable but ultimately, it is the driving force of great design.

How embarrassing it must be for architectural professionals who can't sit across from their clients and quickly sketch ideas... I have seen this time and time again. Looking back to my studio days I remember just about every student trying to design their vision on CAD which is totally non efficient and unproductive.

    This was EXACTLY what I experienced in architecture school and it seems not much about "studio culture" has changed or adapted to the real world as architecture has. As an arch student, the one thing that I never understood was the jury critiques. While some critiques sparked meaningful discussions between instructors who actively participated in my development as an architect, others were just browbeating sessions by random people off the street as it were. Ultimatel6, I didn't really "find my niche" in architecture until I walked away from architecture school and into the real world to help people/firms with real needs. I will credit architecture school with that much, it did help me find a place where I could expand myself and still provide a needed service. It wasn't all bad. There were some fond memories born in the studio as well.

      Don't worry. If you are interested on architecture, do it. Architecture is so beautiful you always find the strength to work no matter what. You just have to drop your ego at the classroom door and to get mentally prepared because professors are not going to tell you you're special or smart. They're going to make you question yourself, but that's part of the game. Don't take it personal.

    A good tip to prepare for a critique imho is not to explain/talk/rant more than asolutely necessary about things we cannot see. Talk about what is present in your material. If you did not finish all your work, don't overexplain what should have been there, focus on what is on your panels. Also, if you have too little stuff, print the best stuff really really big ;)

    One of the main problem of being an architecture is the critique you heard from your professor because you have to swallow her/his words. Some people see critism as pressure, but some see it as motivation and what to improve. The world of architecture is very complicated afterall.

    My favorite studios in school were in creating planning documents and conceptual designs for small towns/ pueblos in my home state of New Mexico. The 'starchitect' stuff was lost on me. I genuinely loved the opportunity to work in real communities and expose them to the design process. I kind of enjoy the task that is working with a limited budget - because it's REAL LIFE. I love my job as an intern at a small firm and I feel so fulfilled. I have learned so much. I still have to attend grad school as well. This video made me miss being in the studio environment and look forward to going back soon enough. Thanks for making this :)

Studio really is one of the most important aspects of architectural education.

    I spent 5 years in this studio culture, and then the next 40 years trying to move beyond it. Studio life and crits are an important skill to have, but the great failing of architectural education is that once you get past imagining something that doesn’t exist, it is a team effort to actually build anything. The last two years of arch school should focus on understanding the complex process of bringing architectural ideas into a world of collaborative business. Architects limit their own influence on the world with this constant focus on design heros who ‘..get some experience, but then I want to have my own small firm’. The Broadway actors who move from the chorus to stardom all understand the complexity of putting on a show, they don’t retreat to a cottage in Vermont putting on their own plays at the village rec center.

    I thought it was funny they kept trying to make it seem like the architecture students were a reputable source of information about how it is to work as an architect or what real-life architecture work is. Both the teachers and the students live in a school version of whatever it is that they're learning which I've found is more fantasy than reality. I've found that working as a welder. College made me optimistic and like living the life of a welder would be fun and exciting- but instead I was working against the clock to meet efficiencies, breathing smoke and scrapping bee-bees (you'd know what that means if you're a welder ;), working my butt off and putting my health last for the sake of a sweat shop. I really wish we could all jump straight into the career we wanted and learn it from professionals and do the exciting ground breaking and creative work as soon as you're capable- but instead that is only left to a few people which makes sense financially obviously but is sucky for everyone who isn't at the top- and if you want to get there you'll have to sacrifice so much of the goodness life and your limited time to get there. Maybe. Eventually. Thats why I'd much rather make my own path and go my own way instead of joining in the rat race- but starting out by yourself is hard and you do ultimately need to know what you're doing if you start going your own way. You can't become an architect with doodles. There is specific standards that must be met with a blueprint that a regular person would not know, and a different version of that example is true of any job.
    There is also the problem that people's job responsibilities are getting more and more specific because it is more immediately profitable for the business if people are doing the same specific thing everyday. The more humans switch between responsibilities or work from work the more time is wasted and the more mistakes can be made which all costs the business money, but switching focuses is exactly what helps people de-stress at work and love their job. People doing the same small thing over and over all day, but everyone doing the different things working towards an singular end product is also the description of a factory. The more and more factory-like our jobs become for the sake of the monetary profit of the business the more we are all going to hate our jobs.
    The up-side to all of this is that you can do pretty much whatever you want in your life and you can go as far as your hard work can take you- I just think there should be less friction so our hard work takes us all farther. But still we should fix the competitive attitude out current businesses have to be less Olympic games and more self-sustaining. Maybe that's why people don't hold onto jobs very long anymore- perhaps it is because they desperately need change. Jeez this has become an article.
    You might say "Well jeez Brenden, isn't business a competition where you're trying to beat the other companies?". Thats what everyone says, sure, but in reality when have you ever seen a company "beat" another company and destroy their business? Its not like CEO's are Warlords trying to conquer each other. Would you even want that? No! Even the thought of taking jobs away from other people who may love their job and coworkers is sad not to mention that they may be the sole income of their family. That would be terrible! Businesses are all about the long term game and their employees, but modern businesses don't play it that way. Why do we even have jobs in the first place? To provide a good life for people and yet people are more miserable at their jobs and out of their jobs that ever! What are we doing wrong? Us as people need a good environment. A healthy amount and variety of responsibilities and freedom, and good people around us. We also strive to learn about the things that interest us at the time. This should all be available to people, but its going to require us to have a change of focus about how our businesses are run.

    aaaarrrhhh the Critique hahahahaha.
    I'm in 2nd year, and for our final semester studio we had a 6hr presentation/critique and less than a quarter of the class actually came to present (our prof was really hard in previous ones, but not compared to her new Final Boss mode she had going on in this critique).
    So in this 6hrs we had 6-8 people present out of the usual 20-25. Our presentations would last a minute or two, the critique lasts what seemed like days, and weeks when it was happening to myself. Our prof made people cry, and stay standing as we basically just got humiliated in front of everyone in class for the finals we presented. Not one person got any recognition for their efforts. Instead of 6hr it become 7.5hrs, basically an hour each. And everyone actually stayed as a form of support for everyone else in class (felt like an army team building exercise hahaha)
    But what made it worse, like what they guy said @about 9mins in, is that the professors explain their ideas in a minute, we then understand their thought, but then they reiterate and then perpetuate the stupidity of your choices for the next 20-30mins.
    I know this is mean as fuck, but it just shows whats going through their minds when they design or looking at others design. The knit picking and attention to detail, which we as architect have to have as a skill.
    But damn is critique a scary and fun place at the same time.

I'm sorry but a lot of architecture is VERY toxic. We need to pull each other out of our own assess and fix this industry. I've been told by clients that they HATE talking with architects because it feels like an ego contest and they don't listen. When ego should have nothing do to with the solution, if the client hates your design its bad... that's its. If you both are satisfied with it; its perfect. sucks but that's reality. I have also grown very intolerant of what I call " archispeak" its a bunch for meaningless words we make up and sound really smart in describing something... but only you know what you are saying and you look like an asshole to everyone else who isn't an architect .... suggest purging this from your lifestyle once you hit the a firm.

    Car Design/ Industrial Design Student here-
    There are too many similarities in the design school world- students who stay up and destroy their sleep, health, and overall well being are almost seen as "design martyrs" and put their work above themselves... I used to do the same exact thing. its really not healthy. its sad how normalized it is to have a a mental breakdown/burnout as a "rite of passage", along with the intense low self worth rampant among design students because they're not the best one in their class. Don't focus on becoming the "star Designer" and focus on your own aesthetic and what makes your work special. Take care of yourself, and the care in your work will reflect that.
    ALSO- the heavy reliance on 3D programs is truly not a good thing. its only a tool to flush out your idea, but SKETCHES are the utmost important thing..picture this: you're in a meeting, and you come up with a great idea in the moment that you'd want to show the team...what're you gonna say "oh hold on let me model this for you and ill be right back"? HELL NO. grab a pen, grab some paper and sketch out your idea. That's happened to me in so many meetings and i couldn't even begin to describe how much of an impact it's made.

    I know there a lot of comments here on either end of the spectrum, this video has really polarised people.
    This is not a bad video, its well edited, very well shot and nice to watch. But at the same time it is being framed badly as a movie about the studio, when it's actually about studio mentalities. I know some people enjoy this stuff, and it seems from the comments that it has motivated a lot of people, which is great. I think there is a real danger here of glorifying the design process and the way we're educated. Just taking the section on The Critique, the students are shown presenting their work and arguing with critics and then say privately how they feel about the crit and they great struggle they go through. Its not until Kenneth Frampton comes on is anything of substance actually said about the crit, and he challenges the 'sales pitch' idea of the crit.
    It could just be the way the students are speaking so generally about the studio culture, and Shigeru Ban almost makes out like the American schools are they only ones with communal studios?
    Regardless, its always interesting to see how other schools do things

    Giving another perspective on the architecture college vision: I'm an architecture student in Brasil (don't spell it with Z please) and our reality is almost the same as the students from the video, but it doesn't have to be like that, trust me. There is a type of romanticization surrounding the way students put health and social life on a second plan to give space for the thinking and designing of our projects. Speaking as a student that is living (was living, thanks to miss Rona...) in the chaotic world of architecture, we don't need to be so stressed all the time and give priority to our classes. We can live our lives and also study!! It's all a matter of balance. If your thinking that studying architecture is all stress and work...you're deeply wrong. We have lots of fun, play and laugh all the time with our colleagues during the times we're in the studio creating, we go to parties, get wasted on weekends, have relationships and etc. I fell in love with my course and I don't see myself studying anything else.

      Thank you for this. I'm going to start studying architecture next year and everything I've heard from people was negative. It's been a big dream of mine and it's disappointing to see so many people despise the career and the major. This gave me some hope.

    hahaha this is soo funny,I finished my BA Architecture in other side of the globe and we had the same workshops, the same problems, the same funny groups of crazy architects who never sleeps and when it is 3 AM it looks like brain is lack of oxygen, because of 19 hour working without sleep and it starts to make some funny jokes out of nothing ...so completely the same lifestyle.
    I think architecture unites the architects of the world, only architects know what you are going through, and also the professor not constructive critic talks 20 min about your "mini problem" what actually not a problem :D But i learned to accept that with smile ,always agreed, but anyways done everything my way :D

    This is by far the best video on CZcams that shows the life of an Architect student and tells a whole bunch of information about it. Every other video on here is a joke. And this was at one of my schools that I wanted to go to. I left school early to go on a tour there, which I was late for, and I have to say that they have a very beautiful campus. The artwork is just amazing. Thank you for this documentary!!!!!

      Arbuckle Industries I'm still in high school, but I'm a Senior with only 2 more months to go. And when I would look online for some architecture stuff it was just little videos and what not. But I got accepted into 3 SUNY colleges. So for that I'm looking towards Farmingdale State College only because it's 58 minutes away from where I live. But I really did want to go to Pratt bit that's to expensive. Lol. But now I'm waiting for CUNY to get back to me. I'm looking at the city College of new York or the city College of technology. If I don't get into those then Farmingdale is my choice.

I am finishing up my undergrad studies and am starting my grad courses in the fall and this really helped to light that fire again. I cant tell you how many times I watched the TRAILER for this film when I was feeling down in studio and it helped to pull me out of a rut. I do wish that it had been made into the feature length film but I understand why it wasn't and I just want to thank you guys for making this.

    I loved the point @9:44 about critiques! That's also my biggest peeve. I always tell my peers after a rough crit, "That is their job! If they don't point out some point of improvement, then They are not doing their job & You are not improving." But I love the addition to that, where the critique is others personalizing your ideas as their own thoughts...so in some regard, more discussion=more impact.

    "A good critique is a critisism..."
    I remember the instructor from my first design course saying, "Look, its Wayne's "DOODLE" everyone, its Wayne's "DOODLE"!" I still find it to be pretty funny today, but because he was such a hardnose when it came employing the elements of design I learned a lot from him.

    Speaking as someone who has only taken an interest in the academic side of architecture (as opposed to simply experiencing it and enjoying it or deriding it as the case may be!) since my son decided to study it, I found this documentary to be extremely interesting and well presented. If I had to turn the clocks back and study something other than what I did, I would be seriously tempted by architecture, even more so after seeing this.
    The emphasis on the need to recognise and learn from constructive criticism is a pretty good dictum for most walks of life. I empathized with Kenneth Frampton's proposal about a less conflictual critique process and it was good to see and hear him.
    I like the insistence by students and lecturers alike on the continuing positive contributions that architects can make to society without becoming power-crazed starchitects, since the vast majority of them will not be following in the footsteps of Frank Gehry and co., which in my opinion is a good thing.
    So you have my congratulations and thanks for this film, which, for me at any rate as a non-specialist, provided numerous valuable insights.
