There were hundreds of architecture students graduating that spring and they were all competing for the same few positions available in the region. Every summer since my senior year in high school I worked on construction sites, learning the trade up close and studying the psychology of the architect/contractor relationship.

Most of the discussions focus on two major aspects: Constructibility – just what it sounds like – the judges talked about how the playhouse would be built and how the design might be impacted once a clever idea was built.

I had many interesting conversations with architecture students while I was in Chicago. It was very interesting that many of them had similar questions to those I receive every day from the licensed architects who follow this blog. Some were concerned about finding a job. Others wanted to know about how to start their own firms.

This past December I was invited to speak at AIAS Forum 2013; the American Institute of Architecture Students national convention. While we waited for the airports to open, I had the opportunity to speak in length with many of the architecture students in attendance. So, here it is… a promise fulfilled.

When I decided to select “My First Project” as a topic for this month’s ArchiTalks topic, I knew instantly which project I would choose to focus on – not because it’s so good, but because I had all sorts of attachments that I could refer to (which is an important consideration when writing an architectural blog).

Now that I’ve been at this “architect” thing for a little while, I can look back at my sketches, all the way back to my time in school, and see how my sketch technique has evolved and how that technique has shaped my architectural solutions. link] Bob Borson short answer – try and work on a construction crew.

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. Deciding to write this blog has in many ways become a watershed moment for me in my career.

I found the jambox two years later in one of the other architecture school buildings, sitting there on a table as if that’s where I had left it the two years prior… … with no mix tape. I had it with me from one design studio to the next design studio up until my spring semester of my 4th year.

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. Which would explain why I’m at this blog. Probably too much so.

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.

The reason she’s here today is because Catherine just started a new podcast called the Design Voice Podcast, as creator and the host, which aims to elevate and amplify those voices of women in the architect, engineering and construction professions. I loved architectural school, but I also know there’s times where you hate it.
