Number 2 Your Projects from Architecture School are Silly September 4, 2014 Projects in architectural school tend to be somewhat outrageous – designing something to exist on the dark side of the moon isn’t all that unlikely. But what is the point of designing these incredibly odd and silly projects?

Front of the school facing Bismarck Strasse (School website) The architectural project with all these features came to my mind when I was wondering which of the projects I have under my belt as an architect could still resonate with the students that I, at times, try to teach one thing or another.

There are little sketches mixed up with diary entries and general musings on life. I found a sketch of mortar on a “spot board” and a piece of decorative brickwork, including a brick-on-edge roll. I really enjoy looking back at the little sketches from my time training as a bricklayer and then working on building sites.

What About Sketching? I’m not sure that it’s that big a deal nowadays – and it would seem that most graduating architecture students don’t really know how to sketch based on the portfolio’s I’ve seen. Presentation skills are far more important than anybody in school actually realizes.

Architecture Here and There

MARCH 26, 2022

Once I arrived, I told the secretary that I was interested in architecture and would love to see Mr. Zeckendorf’s private office if possible. I did not say I was an architecture student, which I certainly was not. I wrote about her the day after she died in this column for the Journal, “ Sketching my mom of moms.”

All that notwithstanding, this is an important article for architecture students and their parents to read. It talks about the process – maybe even the realization – of what it takes to get through architecture school. If you’re a client – I’m here to tell you that you want it.

The Not so Sexy Side of Architecture Practicing architecture for 99.9% The practice of architecture is more than sketching on trace paper, parti diagrams, deciding what pens to draw with, groupies, and last-minute trips to Vegas. Maybe you shouldn’t be in architecture school … you don’t have what it takes.

If you are an architectural student – or a young architecture school graduate – Architectural Portfolios are extremely important. Resumes are important, they can help you get an interview, but few people coming out of architecture school will ever get hired based on their zippy resume.

The education of an architect intentionally and systematically breaks down the creative process “baggage” and untrained habits of their students, and then starts the process of rebuilding that process in a non-stigmatized environment. The schooling that I received addressed the Art of Architecture, as well has history, etc.

When I first started architecture school as a freshman in college, I didn’t have the focus or maturity I needed to tackle the curriculum and I ended up having a serious identity crisis when I was 19 years old. I’m going to share this with my ACE Mentor Program Students! I know I believe it. Alan Manning Great!
