In a downward economic spiral the world is experiencing now, the first professional field of work that gets hit first is architecture. Inflation is up everywhere and the priority to design/build commercial and especially residential buildings is not high on the list atm. But it may change/improve economists say, in 2-3 or worse 5 years from now.

I know a few registered architects who either got recently laid off, did not pursue opening their own firm, or quit to go into a completely different field of work for personal reasons or some related job. One of them went into finance and another used his skill with 3ds max to work in an animation company doing design backgrounds such as buildings.

What's interesting is some of the most notable architects such as Renzo Piano, Tadao Ando, and even Frank Lloyd Wright did not have any post graduate formal education nor are they even registered/certified in the field to practice. While not everyone can replicate what they did to get where they are, I think it's inspiring for potential architects to try and follow their lead if they are committed to the craft.

Would you consider doing a podcast-style episode where you speak (generally) on your experience in Masters a bit more? How were the modules? Your specific workload management? Transitioning to understand the real practicalities of working with clients/legislative bodies? Your comfort in your software skills post-graduation? How your creativity flourishes under extreme stress etc.

It would be interesting to hear your personal journey some more. Thank you for making this video, wish you all the best and you have an amazing set of skills to thrive.

Architecture is toxic. From Uni to Practice. T O X I C.

[Carambolases]

I come to think alot about being an master student of architecture theses days. Paying a lot and not being recompensated for..

[AHana-wqjr]

I'm on my way to finishing this. What's with my uni requiring me to write dissertation paper for uni + ofc the compulsory design thesis. My brain is smoothed out by now

[Nandk]

Is architecture job as draining as college life? .. or is it a little bit better than architecture student life 👉👈🥺 I'm just tired i don't think I can be so drained for entire life

[at.nisa]

Amazing tips! Btw in what university did you do your part 2 if you don't mind me asking

[chriszin]

Guys, whatever you are doing, just quit architecture or find a way out. It's just not worth it in the long run

[ipekakdesir]

I'm about to start architectural conservation masters program in Germany and it's the field I want to work. But the school is not known or popular. That's why I feel like it's gonna be hard to find a job :( What is your opinion about the popularity?

[rawasameer]

in which university did you take your bachelors?

[hocinebougdah]

There are some truths but also half truths. I know for a fact that the M.Arch course at BCU have formal lectures. You seem to have confused part 1 guided learning with part 2 independent learning. Besides, you are brushing all masters with the same brush based on little if any facts. I do not know of any M.Arch course that does not have formal lectures.
