When Dom said he can't look at buildings/structures the same after going to architecture school, I related so much. I'm not studying architecture, but I am studying film and performing, so if I'm watching a movie and I see a shot that's overexposed or out of focus, or the audio is peaking, I visibly cringe
Tis the life of students like us :')
I can never look at chair design the same way again after my product design A-level course. IKEA is a religious experience for me now.
As a programming student, I cannot look at websites, software, and video games the same way anymore. I see the glaring issues in the logic or structure of a program. You don't know how angry I was at the user interface of the software I have to use to edit videos when I start making them
This is me with music, but I never went to college for it. Just copious hours spent writing music and 6 years of band class.
me with films/movies and writing now, i am a huge english and psychology nerd so i don't look at people anyone normally does and when i read books i look for hidden meanings and foreshadowing and when i'm watching a tv show (example: supernatural because it is the best thing i've ever watched and the filming and the camera work is just amazing and i could go on forever)
we don't look at the world in the same way as normal people do :D
Oh my gosh same, I have a very overanalytic brain yikes
Well, my Dad is an architect (and a good one), my Mom is an interior designer, my elder sister is studying architecture and I'm on the way to study it too and from what I've heard from my family, YES it is damn hard but fun too ONLY IF you enjoy designing buildings and are innovative because there are plenty of people who tend to leave architecture right in the middle of the course just because they THOUGHT they could do it
Ooooo what´s your mom´s experience in interior design? Ive been thinking about studying it ^^
@@marir6432 well, she's highly artistic and always spends her free time looking at catalogues, she literally has an OCD for taking care of interiors (yes we don't have any right to choose our stuff for room decoration without getting any criticism).... And yes even after marrying an architect, an interior designer is always a little clueless about where the beams and columns limit her imagination
@@marir6432 sometimes, she even gets angry with her clients, because they literally try to interfere in her plan (happens in architecture too) but yeah she loves her job and it's definitely a great job if you like to customize interiors
Yes, I left Architecture school in term 1 of Level 1.
Now I'm going to a Med School and enjoying it.
Hey how are you guys on financially , just curious, do you guys take vacations often or drive semi luxurious vehicle . I’m an architecture student and from architect Internet forums I’ve read they are not happy financially
The biggest take away is that architecture is not for artists, but for technicians with artistic inclinations.
YES YES YES
Yup that pretty much sums it up perfectly, I'm an artist but have to do architecture because the country I'm from has practically zero industry for art while the housing market is absolutely booming and while I'm a huge fan drawing whatever wild characters and worlds make their way into my imagination, I'm an even bigger fan of not starving to death

I studied architecture for 2 years and I know I certainly learned a valuable lessons about myself in those 2 years.
1) Architecture is interesting
2) Its not what I want to do with my life.
The thing that really made the penny drop was when we visited an architecture house, and they showed off the models they worked on day and night. But it was never build, nor was it ever intended to be build, nor were they payed for it. Rather, they had to pay to enter a competition to "get exposure", and basically slave away for free. How about _nope_ to that?
Also, I found architecture to be like religions. Its not like you have your taste and I have mine and we can all just be cool about it. I found architecture was like fanatical cults when it came to styles, and dont you dare commit the herecy of liking the wrong style. Many architectural categories, like "Gothic" was actually derogatory terms to vilify the previous style while singing the praises of the style that is currently in vogue. Since I like monumental buildings, I liked to design huge hall like spaces. Now, if you said that is not an economical use of space, that would've been one thing. But instead, my buildings were "fascist" and "undemocratic".
I dont regret my 2 years, it was interesting. But in the end, I wanted a job with clear goal posts. I didnt want to spend day and night pouring my creative soul on a piece of paper, only to have the client go: "Meh, thats not really what we had in mind".
What did you go for instead?
That’s very interesting thanks - what are you doing now with ‘clear goal posts’?
PS, is it just me, or is it increasingly difficult to not have a perfectly normal conversation sabotaged by the censor bots? Now, just speakimg my mind on Javascript seems to offend them.
O great. Its gone _again!_ Seriously, this time I really cannot fathom what was offensive about what I wrote. So, lets just say, I'm a software developer now.

Dubai is a weird place. On one hand, the buildings are beautiful and impressive. On the other, they're useless for the people that actually live there, and instead are made just for toruists and fame. Similar things can be said about a lot of really big structures and Dubai as a whole.

Me, having gone to architecture school: who designed those columns in the middle of the stairs?!?!
exactly
Oh god the amount of lecture halls i've been in with free standing columns in the middle of the room that obstructs the students' view are too damn high! It was so frustrating when I was still in architecture school. And it's damn maddening now that I'm an architect.
LOL ive been to that same university dom drew up... it rly is tragic but i guess unavoidable for structure sake.. better to have them on the wide stairs than to put them where the seats are and block views like they do in some halls ive been in 👀

@@yuwiichu1839 hmmmmmmm
I know very few people will end up reading this because this video is a year old and there are thousands of other comments, but I have to share my thoughts.
As a current architecture student I can say this is just one approach to architecture school, sure form follows function is important, especially in practice, but architecture is SO MUCH MORE than just playing tetris with box-shaped rooms and seeing what you end up with. There are entire rich histories and theories behind different movements and styles. Architects have the opportunity to react to and reshape the local context, while creating interesting and memorable experiences. Just designing for utility repeats the boring "buildings" of everyday life. I think you are getting at this idea at 3:00 and 5:42, but I wish you had more than just the two sentences..
Also, sometimes space that is not directly useable is not necessarily 'wasted' space. Take a look at the Bagsvaerd Church by Jorn Utzon, sure the sweeping ceiling curves are not "useful", sure you can't put furniture there, but the height and the light are absolutely essential to the experience of the space. It shows to you that you have entered a holy place. Now I am not arguing for pure formalism, I'll join you in hating on the Royal Ontario Museum, but not just because it has a bunch of awkward corners, but because the building totally(and literally) imposes itself on the context, with no apparent reference to the city.
However I can completely relate to hating the experience. If there is one thing that connects all architecture students it is that we love to complain about our workload.
that reminds me, there’s a church where I live that looks like a giant UFO with a large point sticking out of it. You can’t use the large point, but if you go inside the church, it creates a good sense of wonder because it looks really cool from the inside and from the outside
Interesting comment and I agree. Architecture is clearly not for everyone but that's for each person to find out as you delve deeper into practice. I hated it till my third year when it finally clicked in place for me. Some of my friends till their final year 💀
Also, I thought the channel owner said they did architectural science which was for 4 years. Is that different from a traditional 5 year course? Maybe their experiences are different?
@@SaffariRose From my understanding the main difference is that a 4 year degree, either a Bachelor of Science or a Bachelor of Arts in Architecture isn't necessarily a studio-based curriculum. In the US at least they also are not accredited by the organization that controls licenses, so the programs don't allow you to get licensed and practice on your own. As opposed to the 5 year Bachelor of architecture, 4 year degrees may not cover all the classes/topics that allow you to critically engage with the theory, or understand enough of how a building goes together, develop your design process, etc.
I can only speak for my experience, so I have no idea what the creator learned in their program, or what any specific 4 year degree is missing, and there is no way to summarize 4 years of painful study in an 8 minute video, but it sounds like their school was much more focused on building science rather than theory & architectural discourse. Obviously there are many different equally valid approaches to architectural education, personally I am glad I am in the 5 year program I chose, even if I still sometimes question why I am here with the daily onslaught of assignments and deadlines.
yeah, this "form follows function" thing is very basic. The reality is that function also follows form, and that form can sometimes just follow the "significance" of the space and what the architect want to convey. Architecture is away too complex to just accept boxes.
Appreciate
If only you talked to the people who designed my house, it was made like 10 years ago and its obvious that whoever designed it cared more about a cool modern looking house than a functional one ( we also have no insulation in between rooms, I can hear a conversation in the basement from the attic we have more lights witches in odd places than we have actual lights)
What I've learned from this video
•column
•domic needs 8 minutes in each video
•form follows function
•all exit doors need to open outwards
•I still want an origami paper crane building
And don't piss off the guys building it.
Fr tho origami paper crane buildings would slap
Form doesn’t always have to follow function. “Function follows form” is also a valid architectural concept. Just need enough money to bribe your engineers so they won’t kill you.
@@frozendaffodil3272 You should google Calatrava, he's done some abstracted bird-inspired stuff. Actually quite beautiful.
The door opening outwards thing is not universal especially for old European buildings. Learned that the hard way trying to be smooth opening a door for a stranger in Europe and having to pull it ever which way 😖
As a civil engineer who shared classes with architecture students, I can confirm architecture students were dead husks of their former self after spending hours in the studio on their projects. Engineers work together, architects go at it alone.
we usually work on our own models yes, but we take all nighters together in solidarity
we bond over our shared suffering💞
As an architect... this is a sad truth.
yea as someone who is in architecture school, spending a lot of time in the studio with your fellow classmates is necessary to decomposing the team member skills as well as the ability to handle criticism. that being said, i haven’t slept in 5 days lol
at my architecture school we also have loots of group projects, to the point it gets annoying because i have to coordinate working with 3 different groups....
That's just F in the chat
I am on the Way to finish my Masters Degree in Architecture and my advise to People asking if they should study architecture always is: just do it if you are genuinely interested in it! Else you don't have the motivation to get trough all these sleepless nights and missing free days. I don't have weekends and because of that i can be very hard to meed friends. But if you like it it's really rewarding seeing a project work out! =D
One can only hope your designs are double-checked and proof-read more thoroughly than your written compositions. Retired Science teacher here, and while I hate to be pedantic, a Masters candidate in ANY discipline should know the following: Way = way, 'advise' is a verb, 'advice' is the noun which is given when one advises; Architecture/architecture -- when named as a field of study, it is being used as a proper noun and hence always capitalized; if used as a merely descriptive noun , e.g. 'the architecture of that building...' (similar to 'the height of that building...') then it is not; 'don't' is the Present Tense Negative form of 'do', 'won't' is the Future Tense Negative form of 'will'; i = it, meed = meet; comma between it and it's. BTW, EVERYONE 'has' weekends, you need a modifier after that word to clarify your intent, e.g. I don't have weekends free, etc.
I only mention these points to give student viewers cause to think: if one hands a set of blueprints, or a resume, to someone, with grammatical errors which LEAP out at the reader, how can they then trust any of your math? Building component dimensions (critical!!), calculations for material quantities, stress-load levels, building time, etc.? It's not that Math and English are the exact same skill set, it's the fact that the writing wasn't double-checked, so it would be understandable if they didn't trust anything else you presented.
Our language and the skill to utilize it properly have been denigrated over the past decades to the point where it is now considered a waste of time to be accurate in one's speech and writing. It is, however, JUST as important as it ever was.......unless one WANTS to go into a job interview and be passed over because of inadequate language skills. Remember, it is often not WHAT one knows, it is the fact that one applied oneself to learn it, that gets you the job, or promotion, scholarship, or commission, etc..
PS TO EVERYONE: DON'T use programs like 'grammarly' (lower-case deliberate) to avoid having to improve one's linguistic skills; IMPROVE THEM yourself.

But yeah my stand is pretty much the same a year later, I am also pursuing a minor in facility management now, not that you probably care lol. 😌 How functional a building is and the human condition is what's most important to me.
I don't like the idea of wasted space or resources for a unique looking building. An ideal building for me is one that is both beautiful and functional; but I'd sacrifice functionality over a unique look any day. If an empty box fits the program and best serves the community around it than so be it 🤷🏾♀️.

yup same thoughts
Same
"When you enter architecture, you'll never look at the buildings the same way again."
Totally true. Everywhere I go, I only see mistakes in any angle. Damn. It's a curse.
when you watch Strong Towns videos, you will never see suburbs the same way again. Seriously, though, when you know what good urban planning is, you realize that everything America has done for ~50 years has been a stupid experiment followed by delusions and sunken cost fallacy.
This is also accurate for trying to play as a normal unit in shooter games after only playing as a sniper, but it's positive in this example, as you learn where you can have your head blown off by a cocky bastard with good eyesight. If you don't commonly play sniper then you don't know where the sniper positions in a map are, as you've never had to use them, but once you've played sniper for a long time you learn where the other snipers always go to so you learn how you can not get your head blown off by a cocky bastard with good eyesight.
Also when you're an artist absolutely everything becomes "oh that would be good reference" and you can't go anywhere without seeing something and wondering how you would make that in an artwork
I study biology and i can't walk through any nature spot anymore without going oh i know this plant and this one and oh i hear a bird smh why is this patch monoculture it's a blessing and a curse
Imagine this... my parents had a lot to do with how I ended up in architecture....but now that I completed the course ...I use every opportunity to roast how shitty the house looks 🤣... avery time they get Pissed off I'm like "hey don't get mad at me, you created this monster"
I fell in love with architecture as a 7 year old when I visited my best friend (whose dad is a draftsman). By 12, I drew the floor and elevation plans for my parents' first house, and drew the floor plans for my grandmother's house a few years after. All without taking a single architecture class. At 25, I designed my current house and it's quite the marvel for those that visit.
Though I loved and still love architecture so much, I ended up studying computer science in school and now practice Brand Design.
I'm 29 now, and still desire to study architecture in college up to the Masters Degree level not because I want to practice it as a professional, but simply because I love it so much.
I think for anyone who is passionate about something, no matter how stressful it is, it will feel like a fun ride begging to be done all over again.
Glad to find someone else who truly likes it. I'm from a family of engineers, mostly a lot of software engineers. My grandpa was a popular civil engineer before retiring (still does some work), and my dad is an engineer and architect both. My dad has a private company which he started by himself and he's the CEO of it. Growing up, I've always admired him, and I've always been intrigued by buildings and structures. It has been my dream since a kid. I also used to attend drawing classes for almost 8 years and have many medals and certificates in it. Everyone calls me an amazing artist and even though recently I haven't had the chance to practice much, I enjoy it. I've been scared on seeing how almost every single person despises the course, how everyone says it's one of the most hardworking degrees and how it's worthless. I feel saddened by it. But coming from a family background where everything mostly revolves around buildings, and my dad himself being a very popular person in town for his work, I'm not going to give up. I'm about to finish high school and I'm ready for the challenge ahead. It may be difficult, but I'm not going to give up on something I've truly always dreamt of
As a resent graduated structure engineer student who just join the work force, I don’t think we will hate those design, we are just going to charge you a “reasonable” high price.
Really?? I want do do both architecture and structural engineering
As a mechanical engineer who is working in a construction site. THANK YOU for thinking about us. I have seen questionable designs that made us engineers go "How TF are we supposed to build that"

@@lincabe321 I'll share one of them. The design we got for an outdoor stair of the building is called "Floating stairway". Basically the whole stairs rest on one single cantilever beam that jotted out of the building and it requires a massive beam to support it. We all just go "Why can't we just build normal stairs with normal supports?" you know, having COLUMNS like every stairs ever built.
@@jarupongch and then what did u do? Did u still build it anyways?

If you are planning to get bachelors then you better start studying architecture on your own early: simply get the free books easily available and the softwares and start using them to make random buildings (or whichever buildings you like but make sure to cover all starting from simple) like your own simple house, or a restaurant or a college (take whatever area you already know). Trust me, you'll thank me.

I’m in my second year and the critics of the professor after spending 2 all nighters to finish a project are soul crushing, because you have to start again. Can honestly say its not a program you should take unless you absolutely want to be an architect
thats crazy. ive never been interested in engineering, but i am taking stem related classes next year just because I thought i would like architecture because of the "art" aspect. I thought it'd be better to go into a career where it uses my skills instead of just artistic talent lol
I hate when people say that last phrase. People need to outline EVERYTHING that is entailed in this bloody major-from all-nighters (whether caused from poor time management or work-overload) to loneliness and loneliness to redos/revisions. Don’t get me started on the limited creativity that one has as “professor is always right”…
My dad is/was an architect with PhD from one of the hardest schools in Italy. I looked at the amount of creativity that it takes to draw a few lines when I was 14, and I decided, fuck no, this is not for me. I ended up working for him after majoring something else for 8 years building houses till I decided to move on. I too have a lot of appreciation for great architectural designs. They literally make your day to day living far more vivacious. I remember there was a mansion already built somewhere, and he made a few changes to its plan, and we built it somewhere else. I could not believe what a shithole the original design was.
"An architect's dream is an engineer's nightmare"
-some engineering students out there
Same goes with "an astronaut's dream is the government's nightmare"
as a Civil Engineer I can verify this maygad
This sounds like a line from the "Well There's Your Problem" podcast
This engineer right here. Be kind to us architects
same with "composers dream is a performers nightmare"
This just goes to show how different Architecture and Art History teachers are because lemme tell you our prof _loves_ the ROM building and never fails to mention how its an architectural masterpiece that shows the contrast between the old and the new and yadda yadda
As a licensed architect who suffered through my professor's repeated blatant roasting of suposedly "pretty" buildings and overused terms like "juxtaposition", here's something that I've learned.... if you want a structure that shows "constrast between the old and the new", look at the Louver Pyramid in Paris. The modern glass pyramid's juxtapostion to the renaissance palace behind it shows how you could mix old and new styles without disrespecting the history behind the old structure.
honestly, the architect who designed it "Ar.daniel Libeskind" is a true genius and his design is really famous cuz he has years of experience backed up with the way his work n when a student tries to copy that without the experience, it becomes a little too bad, I guess that's where they draw the line. although liking an Architects work is very subjective
It is contrast when both parts add value to each other. In the ROM case the monstrous modern part is eating the preexistence to the point it could be just a block of concrete and it would have barely the same visual interest.
As a person aspiring to go to architecture school, this video both inspired me and now has me terrified
Every year or so I remember the youtubers I used to watch so often in my childhood, and it’s always makes me so happy when some of them are still making videos. Domics is one of those youtubers and I can’t describe this feeling of inexplicable happiness I feel seeing that he’s continuing to make great quality, entertaining videos. It feels like I’m back in those good ol days, watching this video, so thank you domics! For continuing to make videos and choosing CZcams over architecture!
Your videos really shaped my worldview and sense of humor in the olden days lol

It's been almost 6 years since i started architechture... i'm not done yet and i can confirm every single word in this video, joke or not, is true about architecture school.
Oh and also insomnia, yes. It's a problem on the field, and for some odd reason the teachers and crack headed students seem to like it.... They say that "sacrifice is necesary" for good design.
The word "column" was burned in back of my brain too.
and the work is completely different from what we learn at the uni
Is it worth it?
@@BrianGriffinW It is worth it, but be prepared for some elitism along the way. I personally ended up quiting for personal issues, but may come back in the future.
Money is good, work is plenty and once you are done with colege it can be a lot of fun(also yes, work is easier compared to studying, trust me)
I once watched a friend of mine agonize over an architecture project and absentmindedly said why not make the building round like a igloo, cause I think the premise of the project was to create a building that was unique to the environment it was created. I swear to god my friend turned his head 180 degrees and went on a hour long tangent about how that wouldn’t work, would need custom building material, a dome can’t be that wide, something about useless corners, and finally he ended by shouting ‘curved doors!’
Then we went out and smoked and he said, “Maybe the doors wouldn’t be curved” under his breath.
I don’t know how you folks function.
I don’t know how I’m functioning either
I could not focus or sleep this week because I hit an inspiration block and I was constantly trying to find a way to make a room im designing for school work. This is def not the career for everyone. 🥴

As a current architecture student who is about to graduate from a 5 year bachelor's program and actually does want to do this stuff, I have to say that approximately 90% of this video is accurate.
Out of curiosity, what is the inaccurate 10%
@@kylelikesmusic9458 As an architect or architectural critic might say, you have to feel it.
@@kylelikesmusic9458 But seriously, the only parts that are "inaccurate" in my opinion are purely opinionated and based on design choice. For example, to some (like Frank Gehry), the sharp awkward angles of some designs are chic and perfectly tolerable. When preparing drawings for a client, you may need more than just the three basic drawing types Domics mentioned (i.e. you may need perspectival drawings, material texture diagrams, and 3D models/views to show a client).
@@WestJanaro623 the question is ...was the school hard for you or not 😀
Well, I'm going into architecture for a few years. My parents and guidance counselor laughed when I said I wanted a PhD. I haven't said I want to travel halfway across the world to get another degree in interior design
His little animated dance at the end is too precious, I just love it
As someone who's also stuck between doing animation & doing architecture, I loved this.
I'm actually not phased despite what you said, bc before this video, I saw an architect and an engineer discuss plans for an island home & felt totally entranced. The fact that they made a cute mockup (a cardboard or plastic 3D model of a structure, like those you may see in malls, of the mall itself) reminded me of when I used cereal boxes to make small houses as a kid. I thought looking into the world of civil engineering would scare me out of it... but I fell in love with it even more.
I never thought about how our buildings, bridges, dams, military bases, highways, space shuttles, sewage systems, etc are all thanks to a _vast_ array of engineers. I want to learn to animate & be a youtuber who shares my funny self, but I also wanna be a part of that world. Seeing those two professionals talk about the types of beams to use, the degree to which the soil inclines & how that affects stability, even which way the wind blew- it fascinated me. So... I'm gonna try to enhance both skills for now, 'cause I'm not giving up on either option. 😊
You’re literally in the same exact position as me!! I’m torn between architecture and animation. Working for Disney has been like a childhood dream for me and architecture is something I am encouraged to do because of everyone saying I’m “smart”

@@archikid16 I just graduated high school a month ago with an A+ on my project thesis! 💃🎉🎊
I'm taking a few months off to get my life in order before college (take internships to gain experience, get a driver's license, etc), bc I suspect I have ADHD & would not be able to do all that at the same time (I was already struggling nearing the graduation, so I'd very well be the type of ADHDer to start flopping by university). I'm looking to get diagnosed, but for now I still don't wanna quit this field. It's become pretty much a special interest/hyperfixation.
About animation, I'm still learning art tips on paper & have greatly improved, although it's hard to pick up a habit of practicing bc of my symptoms. My older bro already agreed to get me a drawing tablet soon to try things out, to which I am grateful. Things seem to be going okay for now.
All of those years of architecture school should mean you're a god at building in The Sims. . .
oh trust me!! As an interior architect I really hate building in the sims... The sims is a game... I want to enjoy it and take my mind out of work. I DON'T WANT TO SEE ANY FLOOR PLAN / PLACE ANY CHAIR OR ELSE I'LL KILL MYSELF...
haha really though. I'm usually buying fully furnished houses because of that
@@igamisoy98 This is oddly comforting, lol. I hate building in the sims, so knowing that an architect is hitting up the gallery too makes me feel better about my lack of building skills/enjoyment.
This video gave me flashbacks..to my short time in architecture school. My profs ALSO hated on the ROM (some of them praised it..the artsy ones)
Sims not as much. Minecraft is pretty fun though. It definitely allows you to think spacially about space making objects vs objects making space.
In my introductory week in interior design school someone asked 'who is here because of the sims?' and almost everyone raised their hand.
Well you know what they say; “An Architect’s dream is an Engineer’s worst nightmare.”

Don't do it bro, architect here
@@oscarcheung5893 why
@@ci9247 just go on any architect meme page and you will find plenty of reasons. But I can list a few: 1. years on years of education as pre-requisite, 2. yet most likely you won't learn much until you practice. 3. Hardly any pay : the salary in my city is considered high globally, yet the pay has not risen in over a decade so even if it was once a decent occupation, it no longer is. 4. You will waste your life dedicated to it, you end up having no social life with the terrible hours you often have to work. 5. Tasteless clients and government departments will squeeze every ounce of design out of your creation, leaving almost no satisfaction for those who complete their work. 6. Even if you end up working for a big office with interesting portfolio, the work is done in production line style studio environment that the architects often don't learn how to build real practical buildings.
@@ci9247 and although school was hell, it's only the starter and nothing compared to the main course
1982 was wanting to be an architect. My dream for 20 years, as long as I could remember. Went to work as a draftsman in a large engineering firm, in the piping department. Talked to the lead architect on my first project. He told me. “Don’t become an architect!!! I went to seven years of school, bachelors degree in architecture engineering, a degree in interior design, and now after 15 years as an “architect” here (th company we both worked) I spend my days designing control room out of CMU and specifying “battleship gray” paint over and over. You’ll never be the next Frank Lloyd Wright!!!” I stayed in piping, retired at 58 and still love architecture. Thank you Lou!! You helped me dodge a bullet!!
I swear I'm in 10th grade of artistic school and I was insecure about doing architecture, like I wasn't sure I could handle architecture university too so I just thought that I needed to listen to someone experience so I went straight to your channel and I knew I would get satisfied. Watching to this video was fun and I found it useful, it didn't make me change my mind and it made me indeed more sure about my choice. Thank you, Dom, for inspiring me once again, I can't wait to become someone!
As a first year architecture student, I can confirm that nearly all of this is accurate. I had a prof compare our first drawings to Van Gogh and tell us we sucked. We’re first years. No shit.
Edit: I’m coming across this video again and am now in my third year, with two internships under my belt. Like some people said below, architecture is not for the faint of heart but if you love it you can go far. The attitude of my profs has gotten better as we progressed, and I’ve made some great friends. Also, the professional world is very unlike school. It’s much more collaborative and supportive, and it’s okay to not know things. My supervisors who have been in the field for 10+ years frequently google things.
TLDR, don’t pursue architecture if you aren’t passionate about it. If you are passionate about it, find a good support network and stick with it, it’ll be so rewarding in the long run.
I’m a second year student, listen to the third year

I watched this video before I started college (majoring in architecture) and let me tell you, Professors shitting on the ROM is not an understatement. Hilarious how relatable I found that bit
Dude, I don't mind people boasting about their degrees. You've worked hard for it. Your parents/you worked hard to pay for it. And if you were on a scholarship, you definitely deserve it. Go on and be proud, Dom!

Why did I leave my art major and switch a happier English major? Because I was barely 18 and my art teacher yelled at me for 20 minutes for using the wrong shade of red on the first day.
I thought art especially colours supposed to be expressions of the artist?

@@IngenuityFortress well that's suck
@@fadel_rama By the sound of it, they had more issues than this and a teacher should never yell at a student but art class also isn't just screw off and paint whatever time ether. Like if the teacher gave an assignment to draw something with three specific shades of red and someone used the wrong one technically they're in the wrong. I hope that awful teacher didn't crush any of Groovy's passion but that teacher probably ruined someone's life in their career tbh.
@@fadel_rama Sure. Now write a thesis on why that shade of red is meaningful and adds to the piece.
Oh you're a first year student who just wants to make pretty pictures? TF are you doing here, there are tutorials on youtube if you want to do that, you don't need a degree to make cool shit people want to buy. You go to art school to learn why using one shade of red will have lasting meaning over another shade of red and how you can use that to your advantage to convey meaning in your work.
I'm proud of my degree, not because it's helped me get a job but because the education I received and the experiences there help me produce better work... which helps me get work.
I once read that, “an architect’s dream, is an engineer’s nightmare” and after watching this video, it explains a lot

@@jovi512 I agree. Going for the money only gets you so far if you hate what you do to earn it. Architecture is definitely worth a lot of merit and value if you are really wanting to build (pun intended) a design-related career.

I graduated with my B.Arch a while back and do boutique interior remodels and new design-builds where I work closely with fabricators, manufacturers, material storyboarding, and in Revit to get ideas for clients out. Almost there on hours for CIDQ.
Run forest run!
I too went through architorture ( that's what we nicknamed it), and sadly could not finish through with it. I had to switch paths in order to graduate college, so for you to graduate with that degree is still a form of success in my books.

It's crazy how universal the archi uni experience is, and independent of how much you love or hate (I personally adore architecture), the deep seeded hatred for our educational rites of passage is always there.
I'm studying Biomedical Engineering at the moment. I talk to Civil Engineering students from time to time and they have bloodlust for architects. I'm glad there is a focus on trying not to upset them. They are a cool, but sleep deprived and irritated bunch, just like everyone else in university.
The biggest truth is that teachers kind of expect you to know everything since the get-go, and mock you when you don't.
My teachers would answer every question with: "you are a student now, it's your job to find all the information on your own". Then why do I need a teacher then? I could just chill at home self-studying and not wasting my time.
