Architecture truly does not only mainly focus on beauty and aesthetics. For this project, I really appreciate how you put more importance on the context. It's a sad truth a reality that not all designers put attention to context, where you are not just looking at the design itself, but as well as its cultural, influences, and historical context that transformed that design. Everyone can learn Cad and 3d model skills but not everyone really looks at the context of what they are creating and the meaning of what they are designing. Much respect to you!

pls make more architectural related videos. im currently an architecture student in Canada and I love to learn how other students (or former students) create their work. such an inspiring video!

[ivan]

Bro we were studying at Kingston at the same time 😂 Thats mad!

No longer an interior design-architecture student, but this has been very helpful in simplifying work processes, and presentation skills.
This is probably one of the many side benefits to being a minimalist.

Thank you for sharing!

[jennahbuckley]

I love the sophistication of you design thinking, but simple and clear explanation of such a complex project. Thanks for inspiring aspiring architects like myself!

[marcusdeimos]

Your story telling skills were definitely 90% why u succeeded. ahahaha

[SukritiAbrol]

Thank you for helping us deep dive in the thought process behind a simple design

[xSADRIC]

This is a really interesting strategy. I love how you focused on context, history, usage etc. because that in context with design might be the most important thing about architecture

[HamzaFarooqui]

Great storytelling, something often overlooked in design. Design should be communicative, great work.

[anthonyrobeedelacruz]

This really shows how broad and deep architecture is. Really enjoyed the content.

Respect. There is much to see that is short and shallow online. I enjoyed a break watching this long term, in-depth project showcasing your talents.

As a Portuguese, I wish this would've been a "real" project, it's so well done and could really benefit Pico :)

[processo-andre]

Big hug from a Portuguese ex architecture student 😂🇵🇹

It's so refreshing to find content like this! I recently graduated from architecture school but haven't focused on design in quite some time because of distractions & part time jobs, so this is exactly what I needed to get back to a creative mindset. Amazing work, thank you for making this!

2:42 well I did, I'm Portuguese and have friends there
I loved the dedication and work you put into this project and also this video, having someone talk about our history online feels amazing
Big hug from Portugal 🇵🇹

[oscarsands]

I'm a first year architecture student and this is so useful, such a good video

[mrsrockbison]

Love seeing my country. Had no idea about this history 🇵🇹❤

[ToumaBittar]

and I really enjoyed the video more than I thought I would... great job man.. love and respect from an Architecture student from Syria <3

[khantwaiyan]

as an undergraduate architecture student, I really enjoyed this type of content. Structuring a narrative in my design concept was something I've been looking to improve so it has been really useful to see it done right. Hope you upload more of this type of work!
