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. Depending on the architecture school themselves, hand drafting and sketching may be a big part of it or barely existent.

I’ve been practicing Architecture since I graduated from The Illinois Institute of Technology in 2012. Modern design is timeless and; therefore, clearly the best.

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 like variety and change I happen to design modern style projects but that was not always the case.
