I've stared at my blank piece of land for a year before I planned out sewage, and researched waste management techniques, earthen building techniques and building codes, and what I can do with my property, and thankfully I can do a lot. HVAC and electric I have already solved and tested it as the electrical system is plug and play, as well as grey water and blackwater systems and the treatment for both I have the general design idea in my head, internet out there already works and I have rain catchment and cistern in the works, with a goal of 10k gallons, and the sewage treatment will also have a biogas attachment which during the winter months the Gas will be used to heat water to circulate through so the bacteria 🦠 can continue to produce biogas and break down organic matter, and I can use it for cooking and warmth in the winter, in the summer I'll use geothermal cooling, and solar chimneys and a swamp cooler, since the area is so dry, is all this legal? Yes, can it be overwhelming? Yes is it impossible no, and I'm not an architect either, but understanding engineering and a bit of civil engineering helps when planning homesteads

A typical day for an Architect is very much as Hiba first showed, door and toilet schedules, shop drawing submitting and review, stair details, meetings, research, drawing, etc. Going to see a finished project is only a rare event, with just a few such happening in any one year. That may be the most distinct thing about actually being and doing the profession. Our work is measured in months and years. Projects we start in early concept and brainstorming may not finish till a year or more later (sometimes many years, especially if phased).

Part of what I love about this profession is exactly what's described in the intro - for the most part, no two days as an architect are the same. Yes it can be stressful with long hours and contentious relationships with clients and contractors but when you see your vision come to life and experience a project you've designed, there's no feeling quite like it.

Your videos echo everything I have believed and tried to disseminate in my 40+ year career in design. For almost 40 years I wrote a syndicated newspaper column (like a blog, but printed on paper and painstakingly delivered to your doorstep every day .. for anyone who doesn't know). I know I could have been louder had KZbin existed, but so glad to see smart and opinionated people like you take the reigns. I am currently obsessed and on Day 2 of 24/7 binge-watching (I am semi-retired ... the bathroom wallpaper can wait, and luckily, there are no plans for Xmas). Thank you for doing this.

Having worked for several companies in three European countries I can tell you that Architecture is only fulfilling as a Uni experience, and beyond that 99% of professionals I have met (many hundreds) agree that it is a soul and body crushing business - no doubt! Hand on heart to any young people considering architecture I can say, unless your parents have a well established architectural practice already: study sculpture, contemporary art etc. and stay well away from this business, it will only feed you crumbs of what you are hoping for.

@@artem7804 One might think that if an architect "takes no exceptions" to a submittal, the architect has actually approved the contractor's proposed submittal for use in the project. But there is no express approval in the phrase "no exceptions taken." Further, under at least some industry-standard contract documents, the architect's review of submittals is very limited, and does not relieve the contractor of the ultimate responsibility to construct the project according to the formal contract documents. (The formal contract documents don't include submittals). So, if a problem develops, it first falls on the contractor even if the architect stamped a submittal "no exceptions taken." So, part of the ingeniousness of "no exceptions taken" is that it allows an architect to review a submittal for general compliance with the project's design intent without undertaking the risk of "approving" materials, means, or methods selected by the contractor.

Yes! Thank you Stewart. I’ve been having a real time trying to figure out if I (as a young 21 year old) really want to go into architecture. I’ve always had a deep deep passion for design, and art, and architecture specifically. My father is an artisan carpenter and works on so many beautiful structures, sometimes he would even take me to see them as they were constructed as a young boy. But do I want to be an architect? Is there other ways I could be creatively involved with design and specifically space besides a masters of Arch. Or even a bachelors? School seems so intimidating sometimes and my deep passion for music that I have been really pouring my heart (and money) into would be hard to give up! Thank you for reading and sharing the beautiful world of architecture through your content!!

a typical day for a draftsman is similar to what an architect goes through. in most cases we work solely on the model & produce drawings & schedules from it. what kind of drawings? it depends on the stage of the project. you could produce fancy renders & pretty colours at the early design phase to entice the clients, or produce drawings to satisfy the rules & regulations of local codes & building standards, or you could go full steam ahead & document in construction detail scale drawings. smaller firms might require their drafties to call up manufactures & ask for samples so they can glue them onto finishes boards to be sent to the builder for reference. in all cases we shadow the architect & do as much of the hands-on stuff while the architect deals with client, builder & consultants to keep the project moving. my source? 16 years of being a professional Australian drafsman. ArchiCAD.

If you get into LH Reverse and such, then that chart she had is quite useful in making sure.

By the time you actually start to make a salary abouve the poverty level you are so burned out that you just want to retire...but you can't afford to.

Unless the student housing was some sort of fast track design build project, it begs the question of why a door and hardware schedule was not in the original construction document set. This would (should) have included the door size, door type, frame type, fire rating, door swing, hardware set, etc,, making the review of the submittal a matter of course. Taking 16 hours to review 500 doors would simply not have been tolerated at SOM.

Amazing, when I was making my praxis on architecture, I had a loot of jobs similar to hers, but in Kosova, where I am studying, we use ArchiCad instead of Revit, and Twinmotion for rendering, instead of Lumion wich she uses in this video. This is the best profession a human can ask, there are boring times that is true, but this is what I live for, and it is not for everyone.

The life of an architect is often glamorized in movies or on TV as a bow-tied man like George Costanza scrutinizing blue-prints and attending martini-fueled-power-lunches with Gerry, but there can be a lot of tedious tasks and long hours involved

It seems like the whole door-comparison could be automated, no? Looking at it from an IT perspective, it's incredibly inefficient and error-prone (and tedious!) to manually verify each and every door with every revision.

I sell windows and doors for large custom homes. This means almost ALL of my computer work is reading window and door schedules and then moving ALL of that into our quote system and checking it all over again. I always wondered if I was being overly dramatic with how tedious and monotonous it seems. I’m actually relieved to find out that architects feel the same way😂

Wait Revit does not automatically generate door and window schedules? Archicad does. I guess it could be worse... You could be doing Architectural work with autocad.

Door schedule, with correct filters yes it does. For window schedule you have to set up the elevation boxes for the windows yourself but it's much faster than autocad.

Another great video , thank you for the share, however seeing Hiba checking the whole list of doors is a little off-putting task for an architect. I chose architecture because I liked its artistic and philosophic aspects, but I think none of these are really what we will do in daily working life, so I am a little disappointed haha
