We spend 7+ years studying to become an architect, but does it actually prepare you for the profession or are those 7 years studying architecture wasted?
I interviewed 15 architects, graduates, interior architects, designers and drafters to answer the question "does architecture school really prepare you for the architecture profession?"
These interviews were for the full length architecture documentary "Behind Closed Doors - The Life of an Architect". Do you ever wonder what an architect’s day involves? The life of an architect is revealed in this full length architecture documentary.
This video is a shortened version of the documentary, digging into the specific question of "does architecture school really prepare you?"
You can check out the full 90 minute documentary here: https://youtu.be/WPAXl02M9cg
Studying architecture is a long and tiresome journey. It takes at least 7 years to gain architectural registration (an official license to call yourself an architect). Those 7 years are spent model making, sketching, drafting and mastering the various architectural software available. There's no doubt that it's one of the most intense learning journeys you'll experience in your life. But, does it really prepare you for your career in architecture? Or, is attaining architectural registration only the beginning of your education?
In this video, you'll find the answer.
I hope you enjoy!
