Are you happy as an architect? Simple question, I'm just curious. Are you happy in this field? Do you feel fulfilled? What has contributed, or taken away from it? If not, did you switch careers or what has been done about it? I was just curious how people feel about working in this field, as I know there are very mixed opinions on it.

I am a registered architect. I worked in the field for 10 years after grad school. My job title is no longer architect but I’m only able to do the job I do because of the experience I have. Was I happy working as an architect? No. Am I happy now? Yes, I love my job and I recognize that I only got here because of architecture.
Most of times Yes, i'm happiest when i'm designing. But work doesn't always perfect, especially when only has small amount of budget but wanted a perfect design, or not get pay enough for what you deserve because of shitty clients. It happens 🤷🏻‍♀️

Yes, I like what I do. It's super fun to get to shape the spaces and cities we live in. No, I do not like getting scheduled for more work than I can do well. I would not like any job where I'm chronically over scheduled though.

i'm only a fourth year arc student and this has been something i've been wondering a lot about too lately. in the last couple years i've increasingly found myself struggling to enjoy it as much as i did when i first started studying it, and have been skeptical that things would finally change once i made it into the professional workforce like i had convinced myself they would early on. and that's not even considering the salary aspect of it, just purely from an enjoyment/fulfilment relative to the work put into it perspective. but this past semester i've been taking a design-build class and we get to build rowhouses that the previous semester designed for the university, and honestly it's the most fun i've had since starting uni. there's obviously contractors who take care of the more specialized aspects like electrical, plumbing, etc. but the students still do plenty with the wood framing, masonry, control layers, wall and roof cladding, doors (fuck installing doors. seriously, fuck doors). i'm not giving up on trying a traditional junior architect's role, but i'll probably try my hand at some contractor jobs and see how i like it. for me personally, there's just a sense of satisfaction you get from seeing something built from the ground up because *you* worked on it in a way that you just don't get from scale models, drawings, and presentation boards.

Yes
Not an architect yet, but working in the field for 3 years now. I make just over 45k a year, I make less money now than when I started after inflation. I frequently lose sleep to meet deadlines for more senior coworkers that make twice as much as me. I couldnt even afford to live on my own in this income and had to get a second job selling weed. Thinking of transitioning into literally any other field.

I enjoy my work (healthcare and higher education), clients, and coworkers. Usually am very satisfied. Healthcare work, in particular, provides constant opportunities for growth - learning about how space can help with health/healing is pretty interesting. I will say that it took a few years and some dedicated change in our corporate leadership to focus on appropriate contracts and educating the staff about different contractual responsibilities to improve after a few rocky years. Sounds mundane, but the result is anything but: good management means support for good design.

I’m happy and enjoy almost everyday. Could be that I’m in a period right now with reasonable work load. But for the majority of the time I feel happy and fullfilled. I don’t think drawing something, following it through the whole process and getting to se it built ever gets boring. For me it’s also a big interest. I could travel or just walk anywhere in my own town and always find something to be curious about or be inspired of. Again, when I’m not stressed out at work. But I guess most jobs gets stressful in one way or another?

If not, did you switch careers or what has been done about it? I was just curious how people feel about working in this field, as I know there are very mixed opinions on it.

I enjoy my work (healthcare and higher education), clients, and coworkers. Usually am very satisfied. Healthcare work, in particular, provides constant opportunities for growth - learning about how space can help with health/healing is pretty interesting. I will say that it took a few years and some dedicated change in our corporate leadership to focus on appropriate contracts and educating the staff about different contractual responsibilities to improve after a few rocky years. Sounds mundane, but the result is anything but: good management means support for good design.

I’m happy and enjoy almost everyday. Could be that I’m in a period right now with reasonable work load. But for the majority of the time I feel happy and fullfilled. I don’t think drawing something, following it through the whole process and getting to se it built ever gets boring. For me it’s also a big interest. I could travel or just walk anywhere in my own town and always find something to be curious about or be inspired of. Again, when I’m not stressed out at work. But I guess most jobs gets stressful in one way or another?

Most of times Yes, i'm happiest when i'm designing. But work doesn't always perfect, especially when only has small amount of budget but wanted a perfect design, or not get pay enough for what you deserve because of shitty clients. It happens 🤷🏻‍♀️

Yes, I like what I do. It's super fun to get to shape the spaces and cities we live in. No, I do not like getting scheduled for more work than I can do well. I would not like any job where I'm chronically over scheduled though.

i'm only a fourth year arc student and this has been something i've been wondering a lot about too lately. in the last couple years i've increasingly found myself struggling to enjoy it as much as i did when i first started studying it, and have been skeptical that things would finally change once i made it into the professional workforce like i had convinced myself they would early on. and that's not even considering the salary aspect of it, just purely from an enjoyment/fulfilment relative to the work put into it perspective. but this past semester i've been taking a design-build class and we get to build rowhouses that the previous semester designed for the university, and honestly it's the most fun i've had since starting uni. there's obviously contractors who take care of the more specialized aspects like electrical, plumbing, etc. but the students still do plenty with the wood framing, masonry, control layers, wall and roof cladding, doors (fuck installing doors. seriously, fuck doors). i'm not giving up on trying a traditional junior architect's role, but i'll probably try my hand at some contractor jobs and see how i like it. for me personally, there's just a sense of satisfaction you get from seeing something built from the ground up because *you* worked on it in a way that you just don't get from scale models, drawings, and presentation boards.

*I’m not an architect* I am a residential and commercial General Contractor. I see how hard it is for the architects we work with to make a fair compensation for the service they provide. It is difficult to manage the expectations and changes indecisive customers create. It Is my general sentiment that architects are undervalued and and undercompensated for the professionalism, patience, and detail most work to deliver to their clients.

Nope. About ten years in to the whole deal and I think getting licensed was the straw that has broken the camel's back. Now I don't really have any goal or excuse that I can say with just a bit more hard work things will turn around and it will be worth it. It wasn't. A lot of bad decisions on my part though. I bought in hard to the idea that "loving" what you do is more important than getting as much money as possible. I hardly do any of the things I wanted to do growing up, either for lack of time or cannot afford them. Moved to a major city and make more than both my parents did growing up but have a lower quality of life because of insane cost of living and nonstop work.
Fuck yeah. I’m crushing it

Any Space Architects here ? Any architects here that do Space architecture and extra terrestrial work? As in working with a space agency or a firm that works with one? Designing Mars habitats etc that kinda thing ? Is it something able to be specialised in? is there a route I can take as an undergraduate architecture graduate to become a space architect? I heard the term space architect online and thought it was super cool, designing for space and other planet environments. There was a website like Spacearchitect.org which talked about becoming a space architect etc? I’m not very sure about all this rn but I just want to ask about any information on it, if there’s a way to becoming that style of architect etc.

I'm a US based licensed/registered Architect and a "space architect", designing space stations and lunar bases. The term "space architect" is very loosely thrown about. It's unregulated and anyone can call themself that, and there are a lot of untrained novices who call themselves that. I'm also a member of Spacearchitect.org only so I can be on the mailing list. 99% of the people in that group aren't actually working on any projects that will ever be built. I don't find the group to be very beneficial, it's a lot of talk about the news with nothing substantive. Just like terrestrial architecture there are number of engineers and consultants that I work with that specialize in structures, radiation, environmental control, electrical systems, etc. Just like with terrestrial architecture, in order to work effectively with them I am always learning as much as I can about these various systems. There is a real need in the space industry for individuals trained in architecture. We Architects have an understanding of design and human needs that aerospace engineers lack. Right now practicing "space architects" are only really working on human transport space craft and habitable space stations. My company is also doing some preliminary work in collaboration with a large aerospace company on lunar bases but it's still several years away from being a viable field for someone to be employed in.
This is complicated! Yes, you will still find that engineering disciplines have greater visibility in the space industry, but it's absolutely the case that the space industry is looking to architects and industrial designers for human-centered approaches to spacecraft design. NASA regularly solicits work from architects, and you'll see big names like Foster + Partners and BIG on those projects a lot now. You also have firms like AI SpaceFactory and SEArch who specialize in off-world habitats, and participate in things like NASA's Centennial Challenge for 3D-printed Mars habitats. NASA also partners with architecture schools for things like the X-Hab Challenge, where they ask students to design moonshot systems for future exploration. And companies like Sierra Space are hiring people with architecture backgrounds for certain positions, especially as the private space station economy slowly kicks into gear. So, you can absolutely find your way into the space industry with an architecture background. It probably helps to go to a theory/research-focused school, and to try and learn how to work in a multi-disciplinary environment early, but it's totally achievable.

Any architects here working as Urban Designers? Tell us a bit about your story. I'm evaluating possible career paths and wanted to know: are there any of you who studied Architecture in school and veered off into working as an Urban Designer? If so, what path did you take? What was your complementary education, your main career decisions and other significant contributing events, etc.

I’m also interested in this thread as an urban planning student.
Have an MArch from way back, worked in architectural offices for some years, got kids, switched to public employment (I guess you understand why). Wasn’t exciting but had an amazing career becoming director. Finally got too bored, applied for a PhD in planning in New Zealand. No jobs in planning, now work as urban designer. Like it - bit of both.

As someone who was recently doing the whole job hunt, City planners whether urban or more smaller county planners who were typically just doing front desk code review type of work did have substantially higher pay and were unionized. Atleast in my location.

When I applied to Arch School they had around a 25% acceptance rate, so I thought there was a definite chance I wouldn't get in. So at the same time I applied to another univ with the thought of going into Urban Planning. Ended up getting into Arch School, but UP was my definite #2.

As someone who was recently doing the whole job hunt, City planners whether urban or more smaller county planners who were typically just doing front desk code review type of work did have substantially higher pay and were unionized. Atleast in my location.
I received my Master's Degree in Architecture in 2013 and worked in a high-end residential/small-scale commercial architecture practice for about two years. The economy was still hurting in my city due to the energy crisis and recession, so it was slim pickings to find an entry-level job. I was laid off but recommended to a Landscape Architecture firm that used to work closely with my previous boss. I love it. The first firm I worked for did serious big-name projects, and I got to design and document a lot of them. The firm I recently transitioned to is less prestigious design-wise, but I've brought a lot of old clients with me and my goal is to help them build their private and public/private sector work. It's also a much less toxic work environment. As a trained architect, I tend towards a higher quality level in documentation and project management than the LA's I work with, and I always get the projects that interface directly with structure (i.e. deck parks, amenity decks, green roofs), but I tend to work on a little of everything. I also work with a lot of really big-name architectural designers, which is pretty cool and fun. I have designed and built urban parks, streetscapes, detention basins, huge and small amenity decks, green roofs, master-planned communities.... the list goes on. A major difference between work as an architect versus "urban designer" (I technically refer to myself as an architect who works in Landscape Architecture, and I am two exams away from licensure), is that the projects move faster and you generally work on more of them at a time. Things can be looser and faster, but I am still just as Type A as I was in the architectural realm. I also design a lot more in the urban design/landscape realm, whereas in architecture you can work under the lead designer for years before you ever get to put your own pen to paper. It was a good career transition for me, but the stress and project load can be similar to the architectural field. Also, actual Landscape Architects can have a real chip on their shoulders about Architects working in their realm. In my state, I can never be licensed as a Landscape Architect without an LA degree, but as an Architect, I can stamp any drawings an LA would. One more plug - my firm has a VERY diverse clientele. We do both public and private work, both nationally and internationally. With the new infrastructure bill coming through (I'm in the States, btw), even if the economy tanks and private sectors go belly-up, I will still have job security. This can be hard to find in the Arch world if you design anything fun. (Edit for spelling)

I did for a number of years. Did urban geography undergrad with a masters in architecture. Worked as an urban designer for 4-5 years before focusing more on traditional practice. Still keep up with both sides of things though... I find it difficult/problematic to separate the two: for me design is a continuum and consideration of the built environment doesn't end at the outer face of the building.

It's also a much less toxic work environment. As a trained architect, I tend towards a higher quality level in documentation and project management than the LA's I work with, and I always get the projects that interface directly with structure (i.e. deck parks, amenity decks, green roofs), but I tend to work on a little of everything. I also work with a lot of really big-name architectural designers, which is pretty cool and fun. I have designed and built urban parks, streetscapes, detention basins, huge and small amenity decks, green roofs, master-planned communities.... the list goes on. A major difference between work as an architect versus "urban designer" (I technically refer to myself as an architect who works in Landscape Architecture, and I am two exams away from licensure), is that the projects move faster and you generally work on more of them at a time. Things can be looser and faster, but I am still just as Type A as I was in the architectural realm. I also design a lot more in the urban design/landscape realm, whereas in architecture you can work under the lead designer for years before you ever get to put your own pen to paper. It was a good career transition for me, but the stress and project load can be similar to the architectural field. Also, actual Landscape Architects can have a real chip on their shoulders about Architects working in their realm. In my state, I can never be licensed as a Landscape Architect without an LA degree, but as an Architect, I can stamp any drawings an LA would. One more plug - my firm has a VERY diverse clientele. We do both public and private work, both nationally and internationally. With the new infrastructure bill coming through (I'm in the States, btw), even if the economy tanks and private sectors go belly-up, I will still have job security. This can be hard to find in the Arch world if you design anything fun. (Edit for spelling)
When I applied to Arch School they had around a 25% acceptance rate, so I thought there was a definite chance I wouldn't get in. So at the same time I applied to another univ with the thought of going into Urban Planning. Ended up getting into Arch School, but UP was my definite #2.

Any architects here working as Urban Designers? Tell us a bit about your story. I'm evaluating possible career paths and wanted to know: are there any of you who studied Architecture in school and veered off into working as an Urban Designer? If so, what path did you take? What was your complementary education, your main career decisions and other significant contributing events, etc.

I got a degree in Architecture. There’s a lot of firms who take on urban design planning work. I’ve worked on several of these master plans in an arch office. They’re fun as you get to layout blocks, roads, districts etc. It is however a different work than architecture. You don’t really get to design buildings per se as these get contracted by the client to specialty firms to design them. So for me I much prefer staying on the architecture side and design actual buildings.

Sagrada Familia. Possibly an obvious choice, but it's the only building to have taken my breath away when I stepped inside. I mean just look at this insanely beautiful ceiling. Otherwise probably the Audemars Piguet Museum by BIG, or various Ken Yeang buildings
Salk institute - Louis Kahn, NY Times Building - Renzo Piano - I have many more but these are main two that stick out. The finesse of the design and detailing is in matched.

The Pantheon. That a nearly two millennium old space feels so magnificent and almost impossible, That it sits snugly into the busy urban fabric built around it, That it’s essentially a public space for the city, That it’s both precious but open to the elements... Is something I hope every architect and really every person has an opportunity to experience. It is my favorite space in the world.

This church https://www.richardmeier.com/?projects=jubilee-church-2 because I worked on it for two years and I know why every line is where it is, why every detail has been chosen, why every repetition and symbology of numbers was used. I have no questions about it and it gives me peace.

La Sagrada Familia A building keeping alive and active over 100 years.
Palau de Sant Jordi, in Barcelona. In decay after serving its original purpose in the '92 Olympics, and near impossible to find good pictures of, the plaza's simple charm only fully appeals when you are there. Built on top of the city's largest seaside hill, Montjuic, it has amazing views and tons of little passages to explore on your way up/down. It has three spacious tiers, a storied tower, and a 'palace' with a bell tower. And the colors! Red and white stone tiles, warm like the earth and sprawling, cover the plaza, boundless and light. tall cypresses shade and blur the mountain's true borders. Long crystal-clear ponds (good for small feet in the summer) are bordered by vibrant green lawns and wide waterfalls. When the natural colors meet the immense openness of the sky in harmony, it humbles me. And all you can hear on a good day are playful chirps and a constant, subtle rush of water. I'm an amateur architect, more a fan of the study than anything, but every time I'm here I can feel its immense presence and I know it's an architectural feat. It's relaxing, it's triumphant, and it's seldom crowded. I know it isn't really a building and it isn't super glamorous, but I could go on and on about my second home. At night Lower level

It's difficult to say both the shapes Ando uses gives an almost ethereal feeling, something whose beauty is difficult to find, I also admire how he uses concrete without being "cold". To me this two building have those qualities, the Row House in Sumiyosh/Azuma House (https://sgustokdesign.com/tadao-ando-azuma-house) and the Water Temple, both by Tadao Ando (http://kwc.org/blog/archives/2009/2009-05-19.photos_tadao_andos_water_temple_shingonshu_honpukuji.html http://kwc.org/photos/tadao-ando/water-temple-shingonshu-honpukuji/).

Although it is not very economical and ethically correct, I love the Harbin Opera House by MAD architects. It's one of those rare buildings that give you the impression that they are all this place needed. It completes the landscape. Parametric yet well organised in its spatial configuration, creative and properly designed from its exterior shell to the tiniest details of its interior furnishings and properly integrating public participation in cultural activities. A dream-like expressionist form that reminds me of Bruno Taut's visionary "Alpine Architecture". In overall it's more than a simple parametric exercise or some random punctured or curvy form claiming inspiration from its surroundings. It is the creation of a narrative place from scratch, being in synergy with its surroundings and proposing an unorthodox relationship between city and landmark, landmark and nature or city and nature.

It's difficult to say both the shapes Ando uses gives an almost ethereal feeling, something whose beauty is difficult to find, I also admire how he uses concrete without being "cold". To me this two building have those qualities, the Row House in Sumiyosh/Azuma House (https://sgustokdesign.com/tadao-ando-azuma-house) and the Water Temple, both by Tadao Ando (http://kwc.org/blog/archives/2009/2009-05-19.photos_tadao_andos_water_temple_shingonshu_honpukuji.html http://kwc.org/photos/tadao-ando/water-temple-shingonshu-honpukuji/).
La Fabrica by Ricardo Bofill. I love how he transformed a derelict cement factory into a lush and relaxing environment.

Architects, what is your philosophical position? Why? (e.g. phenomenology, positivism, modernism, deconstructionism, humanism, feminism etc.) If you are an architecture student or designer feel free to comment also. :)

Transhumanism
Postmodernism and revivalism. I think there's lots of radical ways we can interact with ideas/forms of the past.

Transhumanism
Much like actually philosophers, I feel if one limits themselves to one “philosophical position” they lose much of what is needed to create a functioning understanding of the world. Why limit my architecture to “nihilism” or “positivism” when I can approach each new design differently.

The term 'sustainable' or 'green' means nothing these days.

High tech, phenomenology, critical regionalism, deconstructivism, for me anything contemporary outside of postmodern classicism.

Freshly baked architect. My "codes" are: * Reuse, recycle and restore! * Plants are essential! * Plain facade makes a plain mind. *or* Architecture is food for our eyes. * Everything in relative moderation keeps the world in balance. (I know, sounds like Thanos, lol) * Mind the human scale.

Relational architecture. I'm quoting this from my undergraduate thesis. *"Relational Architecture ensures that nothing is out of place. It promotes the relational capability of the design and shows the interconnectedness of present elements. The connection is also valued towards the users which the design serves. It values the needs and desires of those involved making architecture comfortable and accessible for all."* Right now, I work as a junior in an architecture firm (i am a fresh grad btw). I started 3 months ago. I feel depressed about my situation, because the architecture practice isn't rewarding in my country. I didn't have a salary for 3 months despite being employed. Now I am being offered a salary but it doesn't pay well compared to other countries that treat the practice with its deserved value. I'm losing sight of my philosophy because of my family's financial situation. I'm so sad by just writing this. I remember my past-self as a student. I was passionate and full of vigor, aiming to make a change in my country's architecture landscape. All I am now is a person being unfairly treated by the capitalistic system.
