Do not be an Architect unless you are ready to sit for hours and hours in front of your computer, eat, drink in your workspace and sleep a little.

[@dantierandbalogh]

Wow is that really what they do? I thought that they had more work cut out for them 😂😂😂

[@FeMofokeng]

That's how I see my life folding itself out. Deskwork plus woodwork.

[@ZephaniahL]

A divine sort of plan is that employing enduring materials such as stone and that anticipates additions and reworkings from the get-go, rather than just moving or destruction. In short, a real homestead to be cherished for generations.

currently a freshman architecture student and my most hated thing about floorplans is measuring out the rooms then remembering you have to add the thickness of the walls, which in turn makes the room shrink a little... (i haven't heard anything about how to fix it:[ )

I have a curious question. End grain of lumber is typically represented by an [X] .. but is there a standardized symbol to represent side grain of lumber? The typical reverse hatch betwixt lines to represent plywood layers is insufficient, so I presently use a short single line with half sided arrow points (on opposing sides) at each end of the line to represent the linear grain of lumber. This symbol is quite handy for details where I show corner assembly on deck or wall framing.

[@dantierandbalogh]

Ok you got me! I for things like that I get out the promarkers for some colour. I don't love it but it's cleaner (to me) that adding that grain effect
