YES GIRL; YES: You put exactly everything I think about architecture in words. I am an architect who switched to project management. It is more money, but, horrible working hours, and horrible stress. I want to switch to UX now. I followed you!
@@DesignDrawDo I feel like that, it is the time someone voiced it!! I feel like you were my voice and the only one that actually is confirming what I was thinking. I finally felt understood and that I am not crazy, this gives me confidence. So thank you
I’m in project management and i am absolutely stressed. It’s killing me, slowly. I don’t have work life balance. I’m so glad you confirmed this as well. I don’t feel alone.
This profession takes time to really discover. There is so many different paths you can go down with an Architecture degree. It does open a lot of doors and networking can help a lot. In my days the type of work where you talking about working late etc. for firms is becoming a bit of a CAD monkey. I remember a lot of friends of mine saying I am just a CAD monkey and they don't pay well for those roles, but it has to get done. But then a person could do some night school courses and get the same job. I think one thing is there are many offshoots from Architecture. For me over the years I really got a love for the construction site/field which reminds me of how you say you found graphic design. I ended up being a building inspector where I get to go to many job sites each and every day and you do need great technical knowledge and you can build it up over the years. I also just made a video about my journey with an Architecture degree so if you want to see a different perspective come watch! :) Great video, I can totally relate! :)
I despise being stuck in an office and think a building inspector would be more satisfying. Do you have any tips in what to study and how to prepare for the transition?
@@chapinachango8002 Hey there, the first tip I would have is to actually make contact with a building inspector wherever you currently live. Depending on the country and city you live in the criteria may vary on what is needed to become a building inspector. If you already work in the field of Architecture, next time there is a job going on, visit the field at the time of inspection and pick the brain of your local inspector. Education wise, there usually is a requirement to have qualifications in regards to the Building Codes of where you live. For example I am in Ontario Canada and in our province you need a qualification called a BCIN (Building Code Identification Number) and with this number you can take exams in regards to the Ontario Building Code and build up your qualifications. When you have that and then apply for a job as a municipal building inspector it will make it much easier to get into that line of work.
Im a newbie architect tooo, i totally agree with you as even in school i just constantly felt that i wasnt in the right place. Right now I am looking for opportunities in UX design
Super helpful video! Thank you! I'm in the "40 year old switching careers" mode, and your commentary on the long hours vs. the pay (vs. student debt, which is huge in the USA) was very helpful. People can do the full 24/7 careers when they are happy to be "married" to their job. People that are hoping for more balance need to know this about possible future career choices.
i'm in my 4th year of a 5 year undergrad degree, and i swear to god, everyday i wake up and want to drop out, but id rather now get the degree and then eventually move onto something better, but i am so mentally exhausted. studying it makes me feel suffocated i wonder how the work scenario would be ;-; i am super confused if i can put it to simple words. i agree with the all the pointers you've said out tho. although our uni does not provide us with softwares or classes for them, so we are kind of on our own now :D
I would say Stick it out, you're nearly there. You'll have more options with a degree under your belt. It's not easy but you'll come out of it !! All the best

I have been a licensed Architect for over 49 years. When I began my studies I chose Architecture because after a lifetime of work I wanted something to show for my life of work. I live in the San Francisco Bay Area and can drive or ride past many projects designed by teams I lead. Was it worth all the extra time and low pay? YES!
Thanks for sharing! I appreciate the other side of the story - for some people I can totally understand it's worth it, I think it also depends on the place you live in, and especially that you've been practicing for that long! But for many I believe this opinion also resonates as times have changed and newer avenues popped up :)
Isn't it the case that in every job, you have 'something to show for your life of work'? I admit that it is cool to be able to point to buildings in a city to do so, but in a different industry, you could verbally summarize your professional accomplishments to someone without literally pointing at them, and work less and be paid better in the meanwhile.
Some people want to better this world and some just want easy money... Jokes on them AI will replace those jobs next week. Really usuful jobs as architect or a doctor or a teacher will actually stay mostly human. As someone who did choose graphic design(commercial deisgn) i might also say that you go through stages. Becuase there was a time i saw my billboard pop up all over the city too. I designed it. I felt pround. But around age of 30 the understood that i wased 10 years designing something that was only making city uglier(all of ads are ugly just by the nature of greed). And it was not useful or good to humanity at all. I made someone rich richer but didnt make anyone happier. And a lot of people in my sphere seem to have similar crysis around 30-40. It was a lot of money. But it was dull. (I don't have a happy ending where i became something bigger and better(YET) but i defenelty see things in a deifferent light now.)
Question. Who said you couldn't be both an architect and a graphic designer? Regarding the other professions that you mentioned, I know folks who are in the medical field, nurses and doctors who voiced the same concerns regarding pay and long hours. However, I 100% agree with you that changing careers is normal. But during the transition, ask yourself, honestly, "Why am I making this change"? "Is it because I want a job, leading to a career that's low stress but with incredibly high pay"? If that's the case, it's not happening, no matter what other social media platforms shows. Architecture, just like any other profession has a "love and hate" relationship. Just be aware that although graphic design is under the same umbrella of architecture, there will be times where you love it and hate it. I know architects who are also engineers, graphic designers, sculptors, and fashion designers. Just something to think about. Thanks for sharing.
Because it’s emotionally, physically, and spiritually exhausting to do. Doing architecture requires you to be incredibly knowledgeable in so many facets, including being tech saavy to be able to draft or render. It sucks all the energy out of you. Kudos to those who can do both.
You are right, Virgil Abloh was a great case in point of this. So whilst I don't disagree with you, I also agree with the reply to this that it can be mentally exhausting and, from what I've seen, pay for junior architects is not worth it to continue :)
How stressful the field of architecture is, but our growth as human beings and designers in particular makes our choices logical with the difficulties and challenges we face that are increasing day by day All the best to you in the field where you found your passion, space and career
I recently quit my 9-5 architecture job to purse independent career in art. Your video is so much relatable for me! I could relate with everyword you just said. With Ai art taking over artist's jobs I'm not sure If I am taking the right decision to become an artist at this day and age but one thing I am sure that I don't want to return to architecture anymore. Lets see how things goes, I have no idea what I'm gonna get myself into or where I will be in next 5 years
I also studied Architecture currently about to get my masters degree, I've always wanted to go into art but I would still like to see where Architecture takes me for now. I wish you all the best in your art career hopefully join it later .
I agree. In architecture, you work too hard, with unpaid over time, on garbage projects and yet get paid less than an exceptional welder who works a regular 9 to 5 shift. I don't even receive healthcare coverage. The ROI on my education is a complete tragedy. I plan to transition to the IT profession with just a few months of trade school.
Geez... your story was exactly my story. Left in 3rd year out of 5 during co-op and seeing the curtain pulled back on the title. 20 year old me saw too many jaded 40 year Olds and made the exodus. Best choice I ever made though u 💯 agree that it's a great education. I'm happily teaching in public education. As someone told me instead of constructing buildings, I'm helping to build individuals. 😊
The only way to make a sustainable income in architecture is to 1: Be part of a a dual-income household or 2: Run your own private practice. Being a full-time employee in architecture makes little sense financially.
You have to find your nitch and make yourself valuable. And willing to take on any project no matter how good or how shitty it is. Finally we take more good projects. And work where the money is. My former employer was asked by a client to come look at his fireplace. He agreed but the client said it has to be on Sunday. So he agreed and did 3 houses, and several large projects in NJ and FL.
You don’t appreciate architecture until you’ve built something. Drawings are mean less until you’ve walked into one of your buildings. Could take 5 years , 10 , years etc. stick it out. Eventually you will discover the clients are a real pain, and they complain for no reason.
haha! yessss, they complain for no reason. Do you know how many times i’ve been yelled at for the slow lead times of review by government agencies?! It’s emotionally exhausting.
Switch now before it’s too late. I regret not switching out my 1st semester when i had a mental breakdown because of the workload. It doesn’t change in the real world, the pressure is worse because you must make a living. in fact i experienced so much abuse by bosses, with unlivable wage, i went through major depression. Got my degree, to be enslaved to student loan debt for the rest of my life. Get out now.
I wanna stop architecture school, i'm just 18 and i would like to do more digital design and coding, so i'ms hesitating with computer science field and digital design, i found a course that teach informatic and industrial design at the same time but i'm not sure do be accepted now, i don't really know what to do instead
I think you have to have a sit down with yourself and weigh the pros and cons, along with what you really want to do. It's a decision ultimately you have to make for yourself!
Many people dont know that architecture isn’t cool anymore like in the 90s. There are many more cooler jobs and pay more like concept art or Visual development. You can even earn more being a youtuber than being an architect.
I'm not going to argue for or against your position. I work in a field called architecture, but it would be very different to what you do. For me, this job pays well and had good working conditions. However I had an offer to work in what many would calla a dream job. I had open invitations for to work at game development companies from very early on, and they were exclusively Game Companies approaching me, not me approaching them. The pay and working hours for me was as with you, not a great deal and if anything people are finding that situation is if anything declining further. The pay was less than half, the work hours were double, typically, burnout was probable. So I stuck with my 'boring architecture' role and did well. I think in the end you get out of the job what you target. I had to leave behind my dream of building an archology, though, from what I now know of human psychology in dense spaces I'm thinking maybe thats for the best.
4 weeks before the final diploma presentation and get this video in the recommendations, is this a sign? :D Extremely sad information, considering how much effort it took me to get into the university and even more so to finish it ...
Hey Alexey - don't be disheartened. I don't regret doing my architecture degree. I learned a lot from it and you have so many skills that people want to learn! Continue and finish your degree and be proud of it! And know that if you don't enjoy the field you can always switch to another field as you have those skills (though it will take time to build the pfolio bearing in mind)
@@DesignDrawDo Thanks for the words of support! In fact, I'm not worried about the relevance of this diploma, but what is following next. I have already passed the stage of "rejection and acceptance" of this profession and found my niche in parametric design, but the further perspective is not very inspiring... Of course, it's too early to draw conclusions, but taking into account that too many peoples agree that overtime and incomparably absurd salaries - is expected reality, this is clearly not what I expect from something that cost so many "sacrifices". Like most, I came into this field because of an "idea" and based on my interests (just like in your case) but working for an "idea" is completely different ... and certainly not to continue such a destructive lifestyle like in the last 5 years 🥲
@@alexeyandreou9639 agree. It is something that needs to change BUT there are lots of architects making it work. We each have to carve our own path and you're still early in your journey (as am I tbh!). Take time and explore what interests you. Especially now I would recommend saying yes to different opportunities because you never know where it will lead!
Studying in Canada and just about to finish my second year of five, I think of switching everyday. Especially as another muslimah, architecture, at least as taught in the west, feels like the type of thing to dedicate to the dunya. If it at least paid well it would make committing easier because you can do a lot of good with money at least. Honestly in the end idk if its going to be worth it which is what im afraid of atm.
With anything its about intention. You can make anything akhirah focused if you wish, as long as it's not going against God's commands. The only person who can give you the answer is yourself. Look at alternative routes, weigh up pros and cons. Having said that, Its easier to switch early on. Alternatively, you can do the full thing and still switch careers, if you think an architectural career is still feasible. Pray istikhara and trust in God. The path isn't easy but sit with yourself and you'll figure it out
In Canada, how much do architects make? I am trying to get an understanding of what low pay means because that is different depending on the person. Also quality of life is important, how is that for architecture?
Please help me 🙏 I just end my first year and I've veen thinking alot if i should switch or just continues to see another year if i can do it better or not. I do love architecture but soemtime i feels like its not for me to continues with. I wonder if learn for another year and switch, or would it be a better idea to just explore it architecture first but dont wanna take alot of time on it too since i have a family financial problem in a way. But i really do love architecture. I love sketching n doing concept but i soemtimes feels like the just not the way to the architecture. Its like do left but it go right also i dont struggle much too it just the way everyday i do is not the way of architecture too . I Really dont know how to explain but please helo Should i jsut switch from it to graphic designer ? Cuase i do also love graphic designer n i do it alot before i enter architecture. I thought it would be great to combine all my skill all in just one to architect but it feels like im not doing it well enough. Or is it because it just a start of the first year ? Can u help tell me with this? Should i chnage now or explore abit more ?
So, this was an interesting video, but it leaves a few too many questions open. You've piqued my curiosity, though. What kind of firm did work at, in Dubai? Was it a big or small one? Did they have a specialty? What did they have you doing, most of the time? I've heard people in that field complain about the insane working hours. Why is that such a common problem? Is it because the client or the firm (or both) demand unreasonable timelines on projects? Why don't the guilds or professional associations push back on those conditions? I'd be interested in hearing your insight on these questions. Meantime, all the best, my friend.
I worked in a medium to large sized firm, worldwide, so lot of cogs in the machine type of thing...not sure why industry is so toxic tbh but I'm assuming clients who have big money and want things DONE. Working in the Middle East is also extra pressure as they build fast. It just wasn't worth it for me. Thanks for your curious comment 😀
Many my seniors and my elders say architecture really takes long time to how it can make they as a profesional and become rich because it. For me who just want studied for fun, that's not worth it for my long live...
I'd suggest getting advice from youtube, other people as well and try and get experience in stuff you are interested in, if you still want to explore. I think we are so bogged down in having to finalise on a career we don't get a chance to explore which can be unfair
Hard to love Architecture by starting and just doing cad work in Dubai. The main points you said were too much work and not enough money. Yeah, you won’t become rich by doing architecture but you can live a rich life in the right firm. You just ran. I would of recommended a boutique firm where you do a variety of work and the pace is slower. Live and learn
The education to becoming an architect in the UK is longer than most countries, and I didnt enjoy the subject anyway. However, I'm happy it taught me skills to progress in my current career, so it all works out!
Honestly, you really realise the struggles, pain, headaches and everything bad in first year of uni. And the actual industry, it's all glamourized. Architecture uni's in the UK do not teach you about handling the actual industry. I have a feeling I'll most likely go into a completely different route from architecture once I actually start working for a firm. It's too tedious and painful, and I'm starting 3rd year soon. RIP.
The skills you use in architecture school are really helpful for other industries so I'd say just stick with it as it's only 3 years. I feel for those in 5 year degrees. Try the events industries, or interior design as alternate routes, they're always looking for 3D designers.
But if i think rationally, we work to get money. Its different with volunteering or charity.. the most problem is for now Architecture have: effort > money.
The most important thing in life is free,,AIR is free,,why money!!Architecture is about Life,,,,GOD IS THE ARCHITECT!!you are a great architect!!keep up the great work 👍
Oh please the reason why you're on the internet now and watching this useful video is because of money. Stop being delusional like money doesn't give you freedom to do whatever you want. Money is important in this world and any sane person would want to get properlt paid for their jobs.
I'll tell you why anyone would give up their life to do architecture: passion that drives you and you just have to do it. Doesn't make sence, but simple as that. lol
You are young. Graphics is not different and it has to be worse as far as the hours, demamds etc. The world is about giving a company what they need. What are you good at? What are you skills worth to you? The demand for your skills are critical. That is in any field......PS Best advise....find your own way and don't follow other peoples ideas. Lead yourself.
I really like how put in the words " architecture is prestigious but its just a facade" 💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
Haha, thanks Amber :)
@@DesignDrawDo in the US, every bachelor's degree program is 4 years. There are dual programs of architecture and civil engineering that take 5 years

I have been a licensed Architect for over 49 years. When I began my studies I chose Architecture because after a lifetime of work I wanted something to show for my life of work. I live in the San Francisco Bay Area and can drive or ride past many projects designed by teams I lead. Was it worth all the extra time and low pay? YES!
Thanks for sharing! I appreciate the other side of the story - for some people I can totally understand it's worth it, I think it also depends on the place you live in, and especially that you've been practicing for that long! But for many I believe this opinion also resonates as times have changed and newer avenues popped up :)
Isn't it the case that in every job, you have 'something to show for your life of work'? I admit that it is cool to be able to point to buildings in a city to do so, but in a different industry, you could verbally summarize your professional accomplishments to someone without literally pointing at them, and work less and be paid better in the meanwhile.
Low pay? I think I'll just pass on architecture haha. Even if I like doing something I would want to get a proper pay for it to get motivated..
Some people want to better this world and some just want easy money... Jokes on them AI will replace those jobs next week. Really usuful jobs as architect or a doctor or a teacher will actually stay mostly human.
As someone who did choose graphic design(commercial deisgn) i might also say that you go through stages. Becuase there was a time i saw my billboard pop up all over the city too. I designed it. I felt pround. But around age of 30 the understood that i wased 10 years designing something that was only making city uglier(all of ads are ugly just by the nature of greed). And it was not useful or good to humanity at all. I made someone rich richer but didnt make anyone happier.
And a lot of people in my sphere seem to have similar crysis around 30-40. It was a lot of money. But it was dull.
(I don't have a happy ending where i became something bigger and better(YET) but i defenelty see things in a deifferent light now.)
Great video, it resonates so well with me.
Question. Who said you couldn't be both an architect and a graphic designer? Regarding the other professions that you mentioned, I know folks who are in the medical field, nurses and doctors who voiced the same concerns regarding pay and long hours. However, I 100% agree with you that changing careers is normal. But during the transition, ask yourself, honestly, "Why am I making this change"? "Is it because I want a job, leading to a career that's low stress but with incredibly high pay"? If that's the case, it's not happening, no matter what other social media platforms shows. Architecture, just like any other profession has a "love and hate" relationship. Just be aware that although graphic design is under the same umbrella of architecture, there will be times where you love it and hate it. I know architects who are also engineers, graphic designers, sculptors, and fashion designers. Just something to think about. Thanks for sharing.
Because it’s emotionally, physically, and spiritually exhausting to do. Doing architecture requires you to be incredibly knowledgeable in so many facets, including being tech saavy to be able to draft or render. It sucks all the energy out of you. Kudos to those who can do both.
You are right, Virgil Abloh was a great case in point of this. So whilst I don't disagree with you, I also agree with the reply to this that it can be mentally exhausting and, from what I've seen, pay for junior architects is not worth it to continue :)
How stressful the field of architecture is, but our growth as human beings and designers in particular makes our choices logical with the difficulties and challenges we face that are increasing day by day All the best to you in the field where you found your passion, space and career
I recently quit my 9-5 architecture job to purse independent career in art. Your video is so much relatable for me! I could relate with everyword you just said.
With Ai art taking over artist's jobs I'm not sure If I am taking the right decision to become an artist at this day and age but one thing I am sure that I don't want to return to architecture anymore. Lets see how things goes, I have no idea what I'm gonna get myself into or where I will be in next 5 years
Awesome! Yes its exciting to see where the future goes, as long as we keep unskilling I suppose!
I also studied Architecture currently about to get my masters degree, I've always wanted to go into art but I would still like to see where Architecture takes me for now. I wish you all the best in your art career hopefully join it later .
Wow I'm in the exact same boat right now! Quit last month so let's see where art goes, we've got this!💪🏾
background noise in this vid is kind of a bummer
Great video! Enjoyed the insight - keep up the great work 👍
Much appreciated Minesh!
Many thanks for a well-balanced presentation; really appreciated the points raised.
I'm glad it's really helped you!
love how you put soothing music in the background it was very calming :)
I agree. In architecture, you work too hard, with unpaid over time, on garbage projects and yet get paid less than an exceptional welder who works a regular 9 to 5 shift. I don't even receive healthcare coverage. The ROI on my education is a complete tragedy. I plan to transition to the IT profession with just a few months of trade school.
I hope it goes well for you!
Geez... your story was exactly my story. Left in 3rd year out of 5 during co-op and seeing the curtain pulled back on the title. 20 year old me saw too many jaded 40 year Olds and made the exodus. Best choice I ever made though u 💯 agree that it's a great education. I'm happily teaching in public education. As someone told me instead of constructing buildings, I'm helping to build individuals. 😊
Amazing to hear !
The only way to make a sustainable income in architecture is to 1: Be part of a a dual-income household or 2: Run your own private practice. Being a full-time employee in architecture makes little sense financially.
I agree with this. I started to freelance and double the income so I quit working Architectural firms.
You have to find your nitch and make yourself valuable. And willing to take on any project no matter how good or how shitty it is. Finally we take more good projects. And work where the money is. My former employer was asked by a client to come look at his fireplace. He agreed but the client said it has to be on Sunday. So he agreed and did 3 houses, and several large projects in NJ and FL.
To each their own!
Dead on the money! Exactly right and why I quit the profession. I also couldn’t stand the snobs.
Snobs is right! Why are they so arrogant and evil?
You don’t appreciate architecture until you’ve built something. Drawings are mean less until you’ve walked into one of your buildings.
Could take 5 years , 10 , years etc. stick it out. Eventually you will discover the clients are a real pain, and they complain for no reason.
haha! yessss, they complain for no reason. Do you know how many times i’ve been yelled at for the slow lead times of review by government agencies?! It’s emotionally exhausting.
A dilemma indeed !
This is exactly my journey, left architecture after graduating and doing a year in the industry and now I shifted into UI/UX design
Nice! All the best
just finished my part 1 and want to switch to something else, but side note love your video editing and style!
Curious to know what major did you choose to switch. I am also on the same boat to change my major
Switch now before it’s too late. I regret not switching out my 1st semester when i had a mental breakdown because of the workload. It doesn’t change in the real world, the pressure is worse because you must make a living. in fact i experienced so much abuse by bosses, with unlivable wage, i went through major depression. Got my degree, to be enslaved to student loan debt for the rest of my life. Get out now.
I wanna stop architecture school, i'm just 18 and i would like to do more digital design and coding, so i'ms hesitating with computer science field and digital design, i found a course that teach informatic and industrial design at the same time but i'm not sure do be accepted now, i don't really know what to do instead
I think you have to have a sit down with yourself and weigh the pros and cons, along with what you really want to do. It's a decision ultimately you have to make for yourself!
Many people dont know that architecture isn’t cool anymore like in the 90s. There are many more cooler jobs and pay more like concept art or Visual development. You can even earn more being a youtuber than being an architect.
True to some extent!
I 100% Relate TO THIS!
I'm now a Digital Product Designer
I'm not going to argue for or against your position. I work in a field called architecture, but it would be very different to what you do. For me, this job pays well and had good working conditions. However I had an offer to work in what many would calla a dream job. I had open invitations for to work at game development companies from very early on, and they were exclusively Game Companies approaching me, not me approaching them. The pay and working hours for me was as with you, not a great deal and if anything people are finding that situation is if anything declining further. The pay was less than half, the work hours were double, typically, burnout was probable.
So I stuck with my 'boring architecture' role and did well. I think in the end you get out of the job what you target. I had to leave behind my dream of building an archology, though, from what I now know of human psychology in dense spaces I'm thinking maybe thats for the best.
Love your channel ❤🎉
Glad you enjoy it!
I love the video and the background music
Which music is it?❤
The music is probably a little too loud, but besides that this is a nice presentation.
Thank you very much!
4 weeks before the final diploma presentation and get this video in the recommendations, is this a sign? :D
Extremely sad information, considering how much effort it took me to get into the university and even more so to finish it ...
Hey Alexey - don't be disheartened. I don't regret doing my architecture degree. I learned a lot from it and you have so many skills that people want to learn! Continue and finish your degree and be proud of it! And know that if you don't enjoy the field you can always switch to another field as you have those skills (though it will take time to build the pfolio bearing in mind)
@@DesignDrawDo Thanks for the words of support! In fact, I'm not worried about the relevance of this diploma, but what is following next. I have already passed the stage of "rejection and acceptance" of this profession and found my niche in parametric design, but the further perspective is not very inspiring...
Of course, it's too early to draw conclusions, but taking into account that too many peoples agree that overtime and incomparably absurd salaries - is expected reality, this is clearly not what I expect from something that cost so many "sacrifices". Like most, I came into this field because of an "idea" and based on my interests (just like in your case) but working for an "idea" is completely different ... and certainly not to continue such a destructive lifestyle like in the last 5 years 🥲
@@alexeyandreou9639 agree. It is something that needs to change BUT there are lots of architects making it work. We each have to carve our own path and you're still early in your journey (as am I tbh!). Take time and explore what interests you. Especially now I would recommend saying yes to different opportunities because you never know where it will lead!
Studying in Canada and just about to finish my second year of five, I think of switching everyday. Especially as another muslimah, architecture, at least as taught in the west, feels like the type of thing to dedicate to the dunya. If it at least paid well it would make committing easier because you can do a lot of good with money at least. Honestly in the end idk if its going to be worth it which is what im afraid of atm.
With anything its about intention. You can make anything akhirah focused if you wish, as long as it's not going against God's commands. The only person who can give you the answer is yourself. Look at alternative routes, weigh up pros and cons. Having said that, Its easier to switch early on. Alternatively, you can do the full thing and still switch careers, if you think an architectural career is still feasible. Pray istikhara and trust in God. The path isn't easy but sit with yourself and you'll figure it out
In Canada, how much do architects make? I am trying to get an understanding of what low pay means because that is different depending on the person. Also quality of life is important, how is that for architecture?
I love the video but the music is somehow louder than your voice, which is a bit distracting
Thank you, and yes I've got this comment a lot haha
Please help me 🙏
I just end my first year and I've veen thinking alot if i should switch or just continues to see another year if i can do it better or not. I do love architecture but soemtime i feels like its not for me to continues with. I wonder if learn for another year and switch, or would it be a better idea to just explore it architecture first but dont wanna take alot of time on it too since i have a family financial problem in a way. But i really do love architecture. I love sketching n doing concept but i soemtimes feels like the just not the way to the architecture. Its like do left but it go right also i dont struggle much too it just the way everyday i do is not the way of architecture too . I Really dont know how to explain but please helo Should i jsut switch from it to graphic designer ? Cuase i do also love graphic designer n i do it alot before i enter architecture. I thought it would be great to combine all my skill all in just one to architect but it feels like im not doing it well enough. Or is it because it just a start of the first year ?
Can u help tell me with this? Should i chnage now or explore abit more ?
So, this was an interesting video, but it leaves a few too many questions open. You've piqued my curiosity, though.
What kind of firm did work at, in Dubai? Was it a big or small one? Did they have a specialty? What did they have you doing, most of the time?
I've heard people in that field complain about the insane working hours. Why is that such a common problem? Is it because the client or the firm (or both) demand unreasonable timelines on projects? Why don't the guilds or professional associations push back on those conditions?
I'd be interested in hearing your insight on these questions. Meantime, all the best, my friend.
I worked in a medium to large sized firm, worldwide, so lot of cogs in the machine type of thing...not sure why industry is so toxic tbh but I'm assuming clients who have big money and want things DONE. Working in the Middle East is also extra pressure as they build fast. It just wasn't worth it for me. Thanks for your curious comment 😀
Many my seniors and my elders say architecture really takes long time to how it can make they as a profesional and become rich because it. For me who just want studied for fun, that's not worth it for my long live...
Will you suggest BIM career over UX for an architect with 2 years of experience ? TBH I love graphic & user interface design as well.
I'd suggest getting advice from youtube, other people as well and try and get experience in stuff you are interested in, if you still want to explore. I think we are so bogged down in having to finalise on a career we don't get a chance to explore which can be unfair
Hard to love Architecture by starting and just doing cad work in Dubai. The main points you said were too much work and not enough money. Yeah, you won’t become rich by doing architecture but you can live a rich life in the right firm. You just ran. I would of recommended a boutique firm where you do a variety of work and the pace is slower. Live and learn
The education to becoming an architect in the UK is longer than most countries, and I didnt enjoy the subject anyway. However, I'm happy it taught me skills to progress in my current career, so it all works out!
why are we whispering?
Honestly, you really realise the struggles, pain, headaches and everything bad in first year of uni. And the actual industry, it's all glamourized. Architecture uni's in the UK do not teach you about handling the actual industry. I have a feeling I'll most likely go into a completely different route from architecture once I actually start working for a firm. It's too tedious and painful, and I'm starting 3rd year soon. RIP.
The skills you use in architecture school are really helpful for other industries so I'd say just stick with it as it's only 3 years. I feel for those in 5 year degrees. Try the events industries, or interior design as alternate routes, they're always looking for 3D designers.
I agree, should of went rout
Do not view ARCHITECTURE in terms of money,,,don't limit yourself in Architecture!!Architecture is UNIVERSAL,,,,thanks for sharing your experience!
But if i think rationally, we work to get money. Its different with volunteering or charity.. the most problem is for now Architecture have: effort > money.
The most important thing in life is free,,AIR is free,,why money!!Architecture is about Life,,,,GOD IS THE ARCHITECT!!you are a great architect!!keep up the great work 👍
Oh please the reason why you're on the internet now and watching this useful video is because of money. Stop being delusional like money doesn't give you freedom to do whatever you want. Money is important in this world and any sane person would want to get properlt paid for their jobs.
FFS what's with the loud background music?? Its hard to hear on concentrate on what is being said.
I dont think it's so bad but will keep it in mind for next time
I'll tell you why anyone would give up their life to do architecture: passion that drives you and you just have to do it. Doesn't make sence, but simple as that. lol
Fair enough! To each their own :)
your video is good but the music is distracting so i hope you can talk with out it
Noted thanks !
You are young. Graphics is not different and it has to be worse as far as the hours, demamds etc. The world is about giving a company what they need. What are you good at? What are you skills worth to you? The demand for your skills are critical. That is in any field......PS Best advise....find your own way and don't follow other peoples ideas. Lead yourself.
industry is toxic hahahah well it is painful..but u got to push through it
Bangkok has plenty of job for you.
Me: can't choose between interior design and graphic design 🫠
Speak to people in both industries or check out youtube videos from people on both sides, it really helps :)
four minutes and still waiting why you quit architecture............
There are chapter markers in the description you can click through to watch what section you want to :)
why you quict.....answer the question@@DesignDrawDo
You have low attention span that your problem 4 minutes isn't even long wtf???
