Life of an Architect

FEBRUARY 9, 2014

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 say “unhealthy” because I don’t really want to be doing it at all and I didn’t go to architecture school to run a business, but here I am. Today was the 22nd installment of #ArchiTalks – a blogging event with other architects where I provide a word or concept and let them interpret it however they want.

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.

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).

This post is my contribution to an international blog series called #ArchiTalks. This month, the #ArchiTalks topic is “Back to School”, so I am encouraging my fellow small firm architects to go back to school themselves and learn what they need to know to find the work they want and live a life they’ll love. Be included.

Seeds planted in architecture school bloom into a full-on virus as professionals launch their own firms and find their way to small business. At the age of 10, I chose architecture for my career path because, “Artists don’t make enough money. Architecture is a profession like law and medicine. Go Back to School.

If you are an architectural student – or a young architecture school graduate – Architectural Portfolios are extremely important. Resumes are important, they can help you get an interview, but few people coming out of architecture school will ever get hired based on their zippy resume.

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.

In a few short years, I evolved from being a junior architecture staff working for everyone else to a licensed architect with interns and junior staff suddenly reporting to me. In his world, I was just a cheap architecture student day laborer. The Worst Job I Ever Had – and the Most Important. Which are a dime a dozen.

Throughout the winter before graduating, I wrote over 100 cover letters and mailed them with my standard one-page resume to every architecture firm in the New York metropolitan area. There were hundreds of architecture students graduating that spring and they were all competing for the same few positions available in the region.

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.

Once I arrived, I told the secretary that I was interested in architecture and would love to see Mr. Zeckendorf’s private office if possible. I did not say I was an architecture student, which I certainly was not. I was just a kid. I may be reaching here, but I’ll bet my father would look down in approval.
