The Truth About Architecture

Let's talk about the truth about architecture. In this video we discuss the various truths surrounding architecture school and architecture practice in general. I answer a few of the most asked questions like, is architecture hard?, what skills do i need to become an architect?, how much does architecture school cost?, how much do architects make? and what does it mean to be a true architect?.

ARCHITECTURE - Arch+technology+culture Arch is the first formed element And architecture is the art of creating with help of technology and implementing the culture...

[@milesborg9812]

I always felt that architect is a completely outdated name and misplaced. Architecture comes from two words 'Archi' which means 'chief' and 'tecton' which means 'build'. So the literal translation is Master Builder, which is what an architect used to be. Today architects are anything but master builders. They should be called simply Building Designers or Building Coordinators becuase that is what they actually do. I'm an "architect" and I find the title misleading

Kailangan poba talagang magaling mag-drawing before mag-aral ng architect?

[@liannelugue7025]

Most licensed architects in the PH employed in a company make as low as 15k a month and this pay will only improve after unreasonable years of experience. Freelancers on the other hand have to struggle with a.) finding clients b.) haggling with these said clients c.) constantly competing with unregistered architects and other professionals who have nothing to do with architecture. And all these with the most minimal support/protection the government and associations can provide. It also doesn’t help that we live in a society where architects are not seen to be as important as engineers. Architecture is mostly seen as luxury that clients don’t need to spend on. My point is, it would be much more helpful for aspiring architects or students if they were introduced to these issues beforehand. They should be aware of the existing problems in the field so they can be prepared. Architecture is not as fancy and sophisticated as it looksin the movies lol. You see, broken expectations can often lead to broken spirits. It takes a lot of patience, hard work, thick skin and even network and chance to make it in this industry. Or maybe, I’m just of one of those sad and frustrated architects who unfortunately experienced the other spectrum of Philippine architecture . Lol. That said, good job on your channel. Wish your tips were around when i was still in school. 👍

[@LlyanAustria]

This is unfortunately true.

[@wenxhen7884]

Damn, truth really hits hard bro, Hope to make your break soon Arch!

[@janineeveardepuela1200]

I'm also a licensed architect here in the PH and what you said is true. Architects are undervalued here in the PH. Most of them Lalo na sa aming municipality (since we have a very small town), sinasabi na our field is similar with civil engineers and we are the ones who draw and the civil will be the ones to design and build. Like it's hard to explain the same thing over and over again.

[@arkitekjon]

Because most of us Architects here in the Philippines are technically good but lacking in the marketing and communication skills. Some would even reason out - "let your drawings speak for yourself". well, yes...but still we have to SPEAK and communicate well to attract Clients. And social media is one platform. And yes it took me quite a long while to figure it out...anyway, lets continue informing the public about our profession and I've started my channel just a month ago. pls check it out 😊

[@jaytamayo4694]

That's I gues the no. 1 fear, finding clients especially now a days that everything is getting more expensive which is the top concern. I was so astounded to see a piece of wood, the one you use as bed room flooring it cost almost 300 per piece. If you'll be needing like 50 of it. 300 x 50 = 15000. Hell for that alone. Not to mention the architects fee. So you better be employed for a very long time, change all the childish shits you have and plan everything if you wanna be a freelance architech one day.

[@itsCece]

Architecture in my philosophy is about continuous creating and discovering. It's a continuous process of learning and experiencing various ups and downs as an Architect. It's an activity or a profession where you can explore the depths of your creativity and potential to incorporate that into a reality.

It’s different for EVERYONE, so dont really let people influence your perception on how it is once you graduate. The schools around my area help you land an internship after you finish your undergrad, which is pretty impressive tbh, and my own school holds frequent architecture job fairs throughout the year. A lot, if not, all of my friends who have graduated recently have landed a decent paying job (around $40k-45k) straight out of college, and some even landed higher paying jobs by using their degree to land other jobs in a different field (one of them went off to work for Apple, I’m not sure how but hey, he’s happy). Just remember that an architecture degree is a very well rounded degree so you’re not limited to just one kind of job! Use that degree to its full potential.

I've set my goals. I'LL FREAKING BE IN THE TOP 1O BOARD EXAM PASSER!

[@samstocker6450]

Exams don't really mean anything when studying architecture. To get the best jobs your major design studio projects should be imaginative and unique. Good make also don't make you a better architecture student. The students that will be hired and get better jobs are the ones that have the technical skills whilst also having the imagination to think of something unique which is valuable to their firm. They don't want people with basic skills because it's likely they will already have people to do that.

[@cana8779]

Architecture, I believe, needs a lot of passion. I'm an Architecture student myself and currently struggling through my final year. It's been a train wreck of emotions because being a designer means you have to always face criticism. It's up to you to take in the harsh comments and improve yourself or to stand your ground and convince the lecturers, clients or boss, why your idea is good. I cried many nights, looked over at my drawings thinking I can never be good enough. I used to be very passionate in designing but slowly it became a chore, especially when you have time constraints and need to meet the demand of other people. I cannot even say that after finishing my studies, I will land a good job in a good company with a good pay. It's a terrifying thought, especially after spending so much on study materials. Surely there's no reward? But if you're passionate enough, you will see fruits in small details. Through Architecture school I learned to listen to people, to take in criticism and turn it around. I learned to explain my ideas, aspirations and imagination to people through drawings using both manual skills and computer aid. I look back at my drawings and think, "Wow, I made that." One day, I hope I can say the same while looking at a constructed building.

When I was a student, I don't do overnight drafting since I do most of it during the provided drafting hours at school or the vacant hours. My classmates do a lot of overnight drafting because they tend to procrastinate a lot. The trick is you really have to manage your time and use it wisely coz you still have to study for other subjects. As for my designs, its always simple and straightforward to provide a solution to the design problem. Being an architect is really not my passion but I'm still smart enough just to continue being one. If I had known that this is what being an architect is, then I would've chosen another path, which I am currently looking at now.

[@NotiShounen]

Not to break everyone's expectation but I am going to give a little "dark" insight regarding architecture practice here on PH. The 10% fee the AR gets from the project construction cost seems very promising and inspiring, but little did everyone know that the 10% is somehow not being practiced for most of our colleagues because "most" clients are seeing it to be very expensive. If you have closed a deal with a full 10% fee then you are very lucky but on most cases the client negotiates to lower the price down to 5% to 3% or worst case scenario 1%. (Yes! It happens.) 😔 The standard perception of us architects here on PH on the people's eyes are very low like many do not even know that architects's existed, instead they hire CE to do architectural works (no hate to our allied professions). So I hope that the future number of architects here on PH will lift up the standards of our profession in par with other countries. To those who are going to take up architecture course, I wish you luck! Pursue it if you really want it. One last advice when you take up architecture, be prepared to be broken physically and mentally. Bwahahahaha Just kidding! Hahaha. Good luck! ❤

EXCELLENT VIDEO! I live in a pre-fabricated house here in West Palm Beach, Florida, a Sears-Robuck kit that my mother and I believe was originally built in the early 1930s. Regrettably, building records from long ago are nearly impossible to procure now because the county has a practice of burning their records every decade. However, even though it was a Sears kit done in the "Craftsman" style, it is clear that someone put a lot of time and care into how it was built. It feels like a proper home instead of a product. For instance, the floors are made out of Dade County pine, a wood that is now extinct. More modern structures can be beautiful, there just needs to be care.

[@mr.eraser4525]

When I become a college student, I will watch some of your videos to motivate me hahah. And keep it up your funny jokes okay?.😅😊What do you think is the best school for architecture here in philippines?

[@LlyanAustria]

Saint Louis University, cause that's where i graduated from, so i'm biased haha!:)

[@ojozairas.5262]

I can't speak a straight English language so please bear with me hehe. I always re-read my portfolio in English (when I was 10th grade of highschool and I'm taking STEM in shs this year). I always remembered my answer in "What I Am Studying For?" question kineme ng English teacher namin. I don't know why I write my answer like " I am studying because I want to be/ I decided to become an archi in the future to change a gray cabinet into a yellow cabinet" and I think, for me being an Architect or Architecture is not just like renovating a house, buildings.. but also like renovating or repairing a house that full of sadness into a colorful and lovely one like changing a person with a sad face into a happy one. Creating or contructing a building that can lift anyone's feeling when they see it. That's my philosophy kineme po haha. PS: You really inspired me to be one of the successful architect in the future. Thank you for being a BIG INSPIRATION to me💙 PSS: Bilang nangangarap, handa po akong dumausdos at mahirapan to get my dream. Kase I know na mas lalong masarap tamuhin ang success kung pinaghirapan :)

STEM po ba ang right strand for archi?? hindi po ba Arts and Design?? thanks for your answer po😉

[@ojozairas.5262]

@@kidsartventure23 STEM is designed for learners who aim to take up natural sciences, engineering, architecture, mathematics, or medicine in college. So, ayun po kasama daw hehehe

Architecture to me is stimulation of spaces. But I'm still kind off figuring my definition of it too. ❤

You makes me happy💗soon to be an architecture🔥thank you for inspiring me💪❤️

Architecture is a willful act, a purposeful endevour.

[@advikraj6571]

Architecture is the response to your surroundings. It is the art of keeping up with the current trends and recognising the future ones so that we can respond to its needs accordingly. Atleast, that's what I believe it is.

[@colora7012]

Actually, kuya I am really a shy person and I always got very nervous when I talked with other people or interact with them. So, I'm asking if is this a disadvantage for me who want to become an architect?

[@ams7167]

I guess so! because you will have to talk with ur clients and convince them

[@XmidofootX]

if you put urself in the right situations and learn from it u will get over it i mean u have to if u think about it every field requires you to be some sort of confident

[@LlyanAustria]

Yes it is a disadvantage, but lucky for you, it is easy to get over shyness:) Believe it or not, i used to be very shy, but i tried so hard to get over it by having a ton of awkward conversations with people, and eventually i got used to talking to people:)

[@colora7012]

Wow! Thank you all. It is a really big help for me to overcome my shyness. I'm just afraid of what people might think about me and they might don't appreciate me and my works. But today, I will start something new and do my best to get out of my shell so that one day I will become a real architect ❤

been watching a lot of vids about architecture, i want to know everything about it before i take it on college, i need to know if its worth it or nah, or will it make me a rich woman in the future. for me, i should not take something that i "just" love, i might choose something that will make my family have a better life. so im kinda nervous, really.
