LORD OF ARCHITECTURE FROM THE BEGINING.... VERY CLEAR AND SHARP MIND WITH HIS IDEAS

[@jeffreydaniels7519]

Such an articulate speaker, then and now.

[@adammendelsohn]

You know how good music gives you those goosey bump chills? I get those listening to Lord Foster talk about his job. He just get's it and backs it up with a solid work ethic/hustle.

For the benefit of those high school kids interested in this profession, there is rampant fallacy held by people including myself before I entered architecture school that architects are technical people in traditional STEM sense in addition to working with aesthetics but that is complete false. Architecture education in US is 99% humanities discipline i.e. art, history and english with virtually no science classes to receive a diploma.

I think it depends on the school. But yes, traditionally or typically, graduates of ivy league schools take a longer time to learn the "real life" skills.

[@jupiterjames4201]

Agreed - thats what civil engineers are for
