[@RodrigoHernandez-tn7xw]

It's amazing to see how the spaces you designed keep maturing and evolving. I remember some time ago when you shared your design process for this studio, watching it transform and adapt through the time, I think, reminds us of the beauty of the well-designed spaces and architecture.

I hope you will see this, I have a few questions as as a 15 y/o who want to be an architect 1.) How do you keep yourself focused so well and not distracted? 2.) What's a good architecture school/college? 3.) How do you feel most of the time? Happy? Stressed? Stuck? 4.) What courses do you recommend taking for college? 5.) How can I learn more about architecture if I'm searching for a summer job that could make me more educated?

[@koehlerrock3830]

I'm a Landscape Architecture student, and I can help answer some of your questions. 1.) Staying focused comes with a good schedule. Find a routine you can work with and stick to it as much as you can. Having a planner helps immensely. 2.) Architecture programs are pretty common across the world. You probably have a decent college close to you that will warrant good results. 3.) Can't say for him, but for me, the things I feel most are excitement and stress. In school, you'll undoubtedly have a lot of coursework to work on, but there's always this thrill to add another tool you get to use. 4.) Architecture and Landscape Architecture are pretty different coursewise, but still carry the same core concepts. I'd recommend talking to a university advisor about what minors you can use to compliment your major. 5.) I can't accurately answer this because I don't know labor laws where you live, but look for related fields that can help you understand basic aspects of what you are learning about. Maybe a hardware store could be good.

[@DBK__]

@@koehlerrock3830 thank you so much! Do you know how long it usually takes to complete architecture education? And I live in Illinois

[@koehlerrock3830]

@@DBK__ I don't know, it normally takes 4 years for a bachelor's (mine will take 5 though). A master's after that is normally 2 years. UIC in Chicago is also legendary for their architecture curriculum and programs, but can be pricey. I'd say you're set for in-state tuition.

[@DBK__]

@@koehlerrock3830 okay. Thank you so much 👌❤️ Im asking these questions because I think it's smart to know beforehand.

[@mrodriguez7135]

I have been researching ideas for a new home office setup. And, your video has been by far the best one. Not only a functional space but an oasis of serenity amidst the busy work days.

[@Oldhogleg]

Sweet! Well thought out! A really well thought out plan doesn't really come together until one has lived and worked in the space for a few years because it's not that easy to anticipate the needs and what works in an unfamiliar space, and needs and activities do change over the years as well. The "inspirational" objects laying around cracked me up, I know exactly what you're talking about!

[@727luisluna]

Thanks a lot! It's great to improve our workplace and make it a better place to design a lifestyle, first of all, for ourselves. Best greetings from always sunny Venezuela.

[@zhangeldykaupynbayev4619]

I wish this video never ended. Sooo good and joyful!

[@ff-ou4sb]

My father was a creative guy, very hip-mod back in the 60s and 70s. I grew up admiring Vignelli's Stendig calendar on the wall of his office. When we bought our 1960s house two years ago, the first thing I did to decorate our little home office was to hang a Stendig. I save and reuse the sheets for gift wrapping paper. A big red bow really pops on them. Great to see others enjoy Vignelli's design as much as our family has.

[@reddevilian]

As I an architect I am watching this with pride. The organisation and structure you present in this video is amazing.

[@princedesigner7673]

What i can say is that you are one hell of a talented individual, I have watched all your videos from 7 years ago and till this recent one. I am an Architect Student plus' A pro Artist and i have to say that: Your videos are very helpful wile in my process of studying this course. Your videos has been enough for me and still is. "Thank you" for your giving back with your knowledge to us and your inspirations. 🙌🙌🙌

[@Burritosarebetterthantacos]

So refreshing to see a creative space designed by an adult for an adult. Im currently redesigning my office and it seems like every video Ive seen has looked like a dorm room. The ability to film, edit,curate, and still 'architect" is pretty impressive. Kudos.

In the process of clearing my workspace out too! Really needed this for the motivation!

[@bringerod5141]

Skimmed through the video. One really good point was the one about shallow drawers forcing you to be organized, that is something I will remember for future setups. Now when it comes to household tools I have some deep boxes so I really get your point, always a struggle finding what you're looking for in there.

I always find it refreshing and rejuvenating to rethink my environment. By changing just a few things in the spaces we occupy we can introduce some vigor and inspiration into our lives. If we adopt a creative and experimental mindset we can reframe what some may think of as a chore and instead see it as an opportunistic design project. Thanks for another great video Eric!

I bought that same 16 cubby square shelf thingamabob and it broke about a year later. But it’s a lot better than some of the stuff they sell and I could have made it last longer but I procrastinated on maintaining it. I like using the classic foot wide & long strips of 3/4” ply with cinder blocks as a cheap shelving and I like it because it doesn’t need hardware and I can change it around anytime I want.
