Home to iconic landmarks such as Frank Gehry’s Walt Disney Concert Hall and Richard Meier’s Getty Center, Los Angeles’ architecture has become greatly influenced by the entertainment industry. Starting from its architectural schools, the city promotes alternative design practices.

Stern’s Between Memory and Invention , which I immediately mistook for an update of an earlier volume of his, Tradition and Invention in Architecture (2011). The new book, just out, is, however, the biography of architecture’s own Zelig – he has always been around and pops up everywhere. I was just a kid.

Life of an Architect – Year’s Two (2011) and Three (2012) I will admit that in year two I fell off the writing pace I had set in year one, but not by much. In 2011 I wrote 159 articles and in 2012 that trend continued … I only wrote 96 articles. My favorite blog post of 2011 is: Do You Want to be an Architect?

Both of us attended graduate school at the University of Calgary, studying architecture together. We’re passionate about art and design, both studying fine art at universities in Canada before heading off to architecture school. Our hobbies are strictly architecture… and more architecture.

The new federal facility is located on the campus of Kansas State University, which happens to be my alma mater, though it is at a bit of a remove from the main campus that I traversed in architecture school decades ago.

You will get to do just about everything sooner rather than later – attend client meetings, contribute to the design, prepare construction drawings, organize and process bidding and negotiating information, and go to job sites. That last one almost deserves its own category. Drawing sets? Work samples? What exactly is a work sample?

Travel sketchers and architecture students would all enjoy better success if they knew, say how to pull the pencil to keep an even lineweight. I often wonder how much sketching gets used when you reach the “real world” My architecture school puts very heavy emphasis on learning sketching and hand drawing skills.

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! Something a master machine can’t make.

For the purposes of today’s article, I am going to assume that all architectural drawings are correct and serve their purpose of conveying intent, scope and quantity.

the costs of student loans, and general costs of living, and then compare them to the income of a young architect it is ridiculous!
