Special thanks to Bob for opening up his blog to the interns. I received a Bachelor of Science in Architecture in 2013. We not only have the opportunity to work on something that is alien to a small firm like MMA, we also find ourselves collaborating with sculptors, interior designers, and contractors across the globe.

Competitions are a integral part of the architecture experience. Since architecture school and throughout our careers, design competitions provide a vehicle for architects to promote our talents and showcase our skills. A well developed plan will provide a map to live the life of your dreams. I hope to see you in Chicago.

Being unique got me noticed in the very noisy world of architecture internship. Today, graduates of architecture school have it even rougher than us “kids” of the 90s. Technology is allowing small firms to work remotely with flexible “virtual” teams. Firm leaders are busier than ever.

Although, recently with the launch of this blog and posting weekly episodes for the podcast , my reading time has been greatly reduced. My first copy was a set of 12 cassette audio tapes that I looped over and over again as I traveled from New Jersey to Rhode Island for architecture school. I am a business book junkie.

When I was in my third year of architecture school, I picked up an issue of Entrepreneur magazine at the local supermarket. As most architects will tell you, architecture school does not adequately prepare one for the realities of business. If you ask my mother, she will tell you that I have always been a businessman.

Architectural schools are often staffed with educators who are ill at ease actually practicing in the “real world”. That’s right, I am going to pin my recent ( last 5 years give or take another 5 years ) weight gain on this blog.

When in architecture school, we each had a professor who told us that architecture should be practiced for the art and the art alone. “If you want to make money”, he said, “quit now, take a walk across campus and enroll at the business school.”

After getting into architecture school, one of the first things you learn is that the profession requires a lot of sacrifices and many years in order to reach success. If this strategy is widely recommended for conquering other disciplines, why would architecture be an exception? Sacrifice and Patience.

I was conflicted at the time because a) I was really happy to have found a job right out of school when so many others could not, and b) I had one studio in school that I hated, and we mostly focused on retail design. Working at a small firm that did work around the country meant that my boss traveled quite a bit.
