Another day in the life of an architect on the vlog today. This time, we'll look through a drawing set for a project under construction and I'll show you what I think about as I work through and draw a detail. We'll also discuss one of the most common struggles of working alone, what happens when a project is delayed, how to create a balanced practice, and I share my thoughts on the innovative business plan presentations I reviewed as a juror for the architecture business plan competition. See the view from my mid-day hike (!) and what I learned on the podcast I was listening to.
Please say hello in the comments and tell me: does your career conform to your lifestyle or is it just the opposite?
Cheers...!
