Behind Closed Doors - The Life of an Architect (Full Documentary)

Do you ever wonder what an architect’s day involves? The life of an architect is revealed in this full length architecture documentary.
“Behind Closed Doors - The Life of an Architect” is a full architecture documentary / film that gives you an insight into what it is like to be an architect.
What an architect does is typically hidden behind closed doors. But, as architecture students, how do we know what we are getting ourselves into? Why is it such a mystery as to what an architect does? The profession of architecture might not be as glorious as it seems.
In this full architecture documentary, you will witness what a day in the life of an architect looks, feels, and tastes like (spoiler: coffee). Truthfully, the life of an architect is not all sunshine and rainbows. Despite the stress, late nights and years of rigorous study and practice . . . in the end, is it worth becoming an architect? Is the architecture life rightfully exalted?
The documentary “Behind Closed Doors - The Life of an Architect” will bring you along a day in the life of architects, interior architects, interior designers, draftsmen, BIM managers, landscape architects, graduates of architecture, intern architects and architecture students.
From morning to evening, you will experience what it is like in the life of an architect. This will help you decide whether it is something you might be interested in doing or continuing. Maybe you are not cut out for the life of an architect?
The late architect, Zaha Hadid once said “if you want an easy life, don’t become an architect”.
In the architecture documentary, you will discover what Hadid was talking about. What are these big challenges you will need to learn to overcome? More importantly, HOW can you overcome them?
The interviewees in this documentary provide an insight into their lives within the architecture profession. They share their biggest struggles, favourite moments, advice to their younger selves and answer the question “is it all worth it?”.
If you have ever thought about studying architecture or becoming an architect, this documentary is a must watch. So much of what an architect does is hidden behind closed doors. So, let us open them. Let us dive into the life of an architect behind closed doors.

Holy smokes! 6 months ago, our class was halfway through the 6th semester of architecture school. Everyone was busily trying to get their studio project done, but I had something else playing on my mind at the same time.
I had been receiving a lot of messages asking, "what it's like to be an architect / student of architecture?" “I’ve heard of the difficulties involved with the profession and education, is it worth it?”.
It made me question it myself. Why are these the most common questions asked by aspiring architects? Could it be that the work of an architect is hidden behind closed doors? It is almost impossible to get an insight into what it is like. As students, we are heading blindly into a vast profession we know so little about.
This needed to change. I set out to make ONE VIDEO that put all questions to rest. One video that would give an insight into what it is really like. One video to help you decide if architecture is really something you want to dedicate your life to.
I collected as much filming and audio equipment as I could find (I might have gone through my brother's equipment too... shhh), and set out to Baukultur - an architecture practice in Adelaide. I was taken on site visits, client meetings, builder discussions and hung around the office to capture what it is like being an architect. Man, did I realise how much I didn’t know I didn’t know.
The next week, I went to Northern Edge Studio where I met the founder, Paul. I think Paul said it best when he said, “once you finish Uni, you realise there’s still a lot to learn”.
Now, here we are. 6 months later.
The documentary is finished. Is the life of an architect worth all the stress, late nights, and struggle?
It is time to reveal the life of an architect behind closed doors.

[@badapple65]

I feel that an architect must have the vision of an artist, a great photographer, painter, sculptor, and even a musician. One that spots beauty, or interesting detail in ways that the average person does not. I’ve always admired architects and what they do. Myself having 5 years of basic drafting classes 8th through 12th grade (none at university level) I never really did much with other than I do back bar design for restaurants & Bars and general commercial kitchen designs as an equipment distributor. I live in a 1948 cottage of a home on a river in N. IL that definitely is a nod to Frank Lloyd Wright. Every improvement over 17 years now we go for features that bring out or fit in with the mid-century design elements. The word “Zen” is maybe overused but the best way to describe mid century design in my opinion.

[@temitayoprecious2692]

As a Master's of architecture student I must say your content really is top tier and engaging. I didn't think I would have the time to watch this one since you've spoiled us with so many short and sweet videos packed with info, but it came on after some other architecture videos trying to find inspiration while working on a project. I really appreciate you taking the time to share the perspectives of so many professionals at different levels. This is what we long to see but rarely have access to until after our studies. It's definitely the kind of inspiration we need when we're feeling hopeless at 2am with a head full of ideas and a blank page. I have been starting my days (and also some of those long nights) with coffee (i'm more of a tea person), I found it hilarious when you edited that they all start their days with coffee lolll. I also laughed when the one lady shared that she still pulls all nighters every now and then. I really hoped there was a point to look forward to in which that stops lol. The search for the skill of better time management lives on I guess lol. Thank you for the work you're doing. If the other hundreds of comments didn't already make it clear, we appreciate the type of perspective you passionately share with us. Keep it up!!

I've been a nurse for 33 years. Nursing education is similar to the education of an architect in that it is continuous. Standards of care change and you are constantly updating. You have to take what you learn in university and pull it out and synthesize that knowledge with the real world application everyday. I'm watching this because I made a choice, nursing versus a degree in architecture. A kind of " what if had made a different decision, what would my life look like npw?"

[@kylesinko]

That's pretty awesome. How do you feel about it now? Are you glad you became a nurse?

[@joroberson4084]

@@kylesinko If I could go back in time I would choose becoming an architect. There is no perfect job but nursing didn’t give me that sense of fulfillment like I thought it would. My opinion of modern medicine changed over the decades and the care I gave in ICU seemed more like torture to the patient. I switched to OB and once again, what we do sometimes causes more problems than it solves. I have mixed feelings about it, I’m a big believer in preventative medicine. Stay out of doctor’s offices.

Sitting hear watching this as a fully qualified architect at the age of 48...... It was my dream to become an architect.. BUT all things considered and the amount of work and study involved, and the total destruction of what an architect is within the industry. (Gone are the days when the architect was the main figure within a project). I always contemplate that I should have chosen a better path, (medical or finance). Architecture is a calling...

You know my fellow architecture mates, I've just got my license degree in Architecture. That was lots of harsh moments, and heading now to Master degree. I feel that those 3 first years were the most exucriating, and now that the master is coming, I feel relieved, not that it will ask even more work than before, but that I will start to touch a new layer of this discipline: research. For those having hard times studying architecture: if you feel that passion tingling you, don't ever give up, you can do it !

[@NatsSt]

Some of this video resonates with my experience - training was so different to working as an architect. I really enjoyed Polytechnic but starting work for real was quite a blow. I spent years doing car parks, door schedules, Autocad details and endless floor plans. This featured Australian practice - doing nice artistic designs, models and sketches, everyone smiling and happy lol, is not very true to what I've found working in most architectural firms in the UK is like. I think the bit where the girl had a day off and when she came back had to get three jobs finished for the end of the day - that is more like the real job of being an architect. It is a tough job, with low pay, some awkward people to deal with, and far too much to do in far too little time. The main positive to being an architect, apart from the day you finally get your qualification, is seeing projects you designed actually being built, and then being used.

And the sad reality is that it is very difficult to find people who were once in a different profession because architecture is a very long course to get into or change afterward.

Thanks for watching Nikos. You make a great point.

Love it😍

Thank you Jelena!

The most profound architects are the ones who don't say things like "architecture might bring you happiness". You shouldn't be in any career that makes you feel that way. That's a horrid way to live life.

Both firms use Revit primarily. Thanks a lot Leon.

I am an interior design student just getting an associates not even a bachelors. I switch majors at the end of my last degree. I hope I am making the right decision. I do not want to be stuck in a job just drawing all the time. I also hope there are jobs available after graduation.

[@kylesinko]

You've got this! All you can do is try your hardest

[@TheLarryOBrien]

I am looking forward to the one on laywers, engineers, doctors and accounters

[@kylesinko]

Would be cool, but not where my passion lies! I hope this video inspires someone to make a similar video for other professions. That would be awesome.

I am in 2nd year of my architecture degree and I've been really stressful lately wondering if this course was ever for me. I am on the verge of dropping out. Is life after uni easier or gets more stressful?

[@matildawise9629]

i'm in year 12 and applying to uni soon - I need some advice on the best uni (can be nationwide) for architecture. I'm currently majorly considering Melbourne for a bachelor of design :)

[@kylesinko]

I might be biased, but UniSA has been great. I'm sure any University in Australia would provide a similar experience. It's more about how much you put in which determines how much you get out of it. Good luck!

i dont know man the only steady job ive had for years has been with my father, i love architecture and i'm thinking about doing it next, only because 1 i need to get away from my father he's slipping at 54 and 2 I hate what i'm doing now.
