To me, The Life and Death of Great American Cities by Jane Jacobs ties together the built environment with the socio-economical and political objectives of the time and the importance of human nature and behaviors. Learning the history of a city or town is certainly going to be reflected through it’s built environment, which in turn is a product or by product of the prevailing political thoughts of the time. After having a core understanding of why we build, getting into architectural styles through different periods of history is personal preference. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder? One might argue that our current bastardization of residential home styles is based on an imaginary nostalgia of the past that never truly existed, trying to capture the ideal suburban lifestyle duplicated, mirrored and packaged across America.

Lol On a more serious note, most people after spending 4-6 years with other architects in school and at work, have some sort of rule about dating another architect and that might have have factored into why she's dating you. In other words you not knowing much about it might be why she's dating you, and you might be her escape from it all. I'd just ask her questions about things when you see some building that you find cool or curious about. Ask her why cross braces are a thing when you see it, ask her why you don't see wood buildings that a 8 stories high, ask her how hard it is to light a building on fire when you're in a large shopping mall with alot of people :-p. Alle her what her favorite building is in the city and offer to go there with her. | 1 | 287 | 11.6 | ||

Try reading light articles and review in magazine. | To understand the general importance of Architecture, is to know why we build as a society and how we prioritize those decisions. To me, The Life and Death of Great American Cities by Jane Jacobs ties together the built environment with the socio-economical and political objectives of the time and the importance of human nature and behaviors. Learning the history of a city or town is certainly going to be reflected through it’s built environment, which in turn is a product or by product of the prevailing political thoughts of the time. After having a core understanding of why we build, getting into architectural styles through different periods of history is personal preference. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder? One might argue that our current bastardization of residential home styles is based on an imaginary nostalgia of the past that never truly existed, trying to capture the ideal suburban lifestyle duplicated, mirrored and packaged across America.

In other words you not knowing much about it might be why she's dating you, and you might be her escape from it all. I'd just ask her questions about things when you see some building that you find cool or curious about. Ask her why cross braces are a thing when you see it, ask her why you don't see wood buildings that a 8 stories high, ask her how hard it is to light a building on fire when you're in a large shopping mall with alot of people :-p.

q7z20r | architecture_train | 0.98 | My Girlfriend is an architect. I want to learn a bit about architecture to talk to her about. Where do I start? My gf is an architect currently working as an interior designer. I just wanted to read a bit about architecture so that I can talk to her about her work. Is there any readings/books/articles to give me a faint idea about what architects/interior designers work on at a technical level? | hgmpbde | hgml1i3 | 1,634,230,049 | 1,634,228,309 | 10 | 3 | First rule about architecture is don't talk about architecture. Lol On a more serious note, most people after spending 4-6 years with other architects in school and at work, have some sort of rule about dating another architect and that might have have factored into why she's dating you. In other words you not knowing much about it might be why she's dating you, and you might be her escape from it all. I'd just ask her questions about things when you see some building that you find cool or curious about. Ask her why cross braces are a thing when you see it, ask her why you don't see wood buildings that a 8 stories high, ask her how hard it is to light a building on fire when you're in a large shopping mall with alot of people :-p. Alle her what her favorite building is in the city and offer to go there with her. | https://archinect.com You’ll see plenty of a projects, articles and forums that might interest you as a non-architect that she probably has an opinion on as well. | 1 | 1,740 | 3.333333 | ||

Look around you, what do you see that's interesting? Weird? Wrong? I think she would like you taking notice of your environment. | Neufert | 1 | 11,419 | 1.111111 |
