*No shit talk. Straight to the point. Keep up the good work!*

I realized this and quit Architecture school. Learned special structure engineering in the field, and have been doing it for 20 years now. Great speech.

although I'm 5 years late but THANK YOU SO MUCH for this I really glad that some said something about it

as an architect with 5 years of experience that is still at the bottom of the pyramid , this cuts deep man

This is a breathe of fresh air in this age of rediculous pretentiousness of architecture... This video is so true it's actually scary 🤯 As far a I can tell it is the disconnect for place and material driving by modern building technology (concrete, steel, modern efficient supply chains) that architect is now "place less" and maybe it's a case of freedom without boundaries is an ugly thing? I would like to hear your opinion on vernacular architecture and how we should approach this with modern technology of both material and design tools? And, how to reconcile this with our old buildings / heritage buildings > do we have survivorship bias or is there a quantifiable difference in aesthetic quality and how do we weight that against usability/livability? I have been thinking about the importance of discomfort in design, and how we seek comfort but it is discomfort that gives a feeling of living and satisfaction, and how I can include this in projects.

I respectfully appreciate your honesty in observation and opinion. By far the most objective and crisp youtube video on architecture. I stumbled upon this 3 years late but I am glad.

I remember back in college I was working towards architecture, and while I still love the field, I saw this writing on the wall and knew it wasn't what I wanted to do professionally. I'm glad I didn't make that mistake

In the office where I work, one day a rich man brought his daughter to work and they didn't accept her, so he asked to pay us to let her work, and they didn't accept her too, and now we have 2 new graduated architects in our firm that literally work free!

Some one please give this man a medal.

you are telling the truth , my friend, thank you ,really

Amazing and down to earth. Made me emotional! You are right on what you are saying. We need to innovate and we need to make peoples lives BETTER, and we can only do it by innovative ideas. Simple solutions can be done by any other profession.

This is gem of a video!!! So much uncomfortable truth out of the back

You’re a hero. Keep it up while we do our part. Thanks mate!

I can totally relate!! Since the beginning i've had this desire to immerse myself with possibilities of incorporating and collaborating with cutting edge interdisciplinary movements characterized by "modern movement thinking" nut somehow it all got watered down by limitiations of the status quo where we would eventually go down the "less risky" route. it was also exhausting having to double task design and research and development but i always felt it was the ideal route, not being boxed in by purely architectural theory and less of what really matters to the person or the environment. Architecture really needs constant studying and discovery, which i am proud to say my hunger for which has not been lost, but of course as i age i start to devote my time elsewhere too. But this is the kind of thinking that every architect needs, to be constantly pushing, to be constantly innovating, while being able to make the cost within the projected budget of the client ( as i live in a third-world country, it eventually boils down to this) But i am happy to discover this channel, aside from being entertained, some of my thoughts are also being validated. I too have been advocating a work process where proper and correct documentation time should be achieved in least amount of time so that more time can be devoted to developing the design and ideas, as we also work with a strict time frame. Now, a lot of my research goes into quick rendering, BIM and Revit which i've bben using since 2014 and hopefully more of parametric design and grasshopper and Rhino. Happy new subsciber here! will probably sweeping through most if not all your videos, thanks.

I’m a Licensed Architect. In 1984 I took a Construction Management course by Leher McGovern in New York. The first words describing the function of a Construction Manager was, we must protect the “Owner from the Architect.”

Very challenging and useful! Thank you

This is so inspiring, it literally gave me chills down my spine

sanjay puri architects in Mumbai, India asks for $500 a month if you want to work as an intern there

Highly informative.....Thanks ~

Making sense! Thanks

4th video I'm into and AMAZING .. LOVE THESE VIDEOS

Thank you for this talk

Truth,truth and truth..

Really inspiring and legit questions. Thanks for the video.

the best channel

Eye opening video

totally agree

Very challenging and useful video i like this video

Excelente!!

I just finished my mandatory internship unpaid…

this channel is so underrated

lol guilty, I am an artist who studied architecture, totally agree. I do love the star architects, but now I learn I rather be the developer

So true

Preach

this must preach keep me in power

It's not about beauty, but most Architects are not attempting beautiful from what they tell me, there's no budget for non-Starictects to do beautiful, so they intellectualise around "the interesting". The innovation is not around function, concrete deliverables, but so often around "concept" which is often just a fancy word for "different for the hell of it", to make me as Architect seem special and you as client worthy of "special" because you can afford to pay the 20% extra. Special is good, or more often, not so much. I don't think science is the answer. But ignoring science is not the answer either.

Brilliant

Perfect I am about to get graduate this is the thing I am confused 😵😵😅😅😅

Tip from the house: don't show and discuss post-modern art if you want to prove your point on modern art. Nevertheless, keep up the video's!

'Oh architects get paid badly? Really? Well, im architect, yes. I havent get paid yet. It is so glad to hear we are getting paid(even 100usd for a month). ' This is the real situation, hahah. No wonder most of architects are becoming 'Dostoyeski's of modern world or waitresses.

Gud

reminds me of "Ordos 100" :v

Taking the art out of architecture is making it engineering. I noticed in the video that you very well realize that architecture contains a spectrum of niches each with a certain degree of artistic freedom and monetary compensation. The issue with architecture is not the "art" in it or the lack of innovation but the sheer number of architects that the universities produce. This simple issue leads to problems with payment, rises competitiveness between architects and allows investors to have a bigger say in the design process.

👍👍👍

I wanna training under you

well thanks for scaring the shit out of me

maybe the red line would present growing of a new vine (life , birth ) >>> -_- (i hate these heresies)

Being resentful of successful architects shows poor character , this hiearchy of the elite plays across in all disaplines and professions, even though I agree with the idea of architecture being less artsy and more scientific.
