Which building did you change your mind about? I visited the Jewish Museum in Berlin today and it blew me away. I was always skeptical of the addition Libeskind designed, it just seemed too weird. But standing in front of it and walking through it, it really is an amazing piece of architecture. Which building did you change your mind about either from bad to good or vice versa?

The forbidden city in Beijing. Went from just seeing it as a boring, repetitive and uninvenitive design (what's the big fuss about?) to being my favorite building/built environment. That also definitely reinforced my understanding of how photography as a tool to transmit the experience of architecture is totally inadequate, unless you're in the know and can kind of 'read between the lines', but even then.
The ROM by Libeskind, I liked it from afar, biking past and seeing it in renders. ... Then I visited it in person and absolutely hate the building. Chunky, awkward and ill-suited to be a museum. Didn't see that coming.

How do you make the exterior portion of a building look more exceptional? Hi. I am an architecture student. I always get stuck when it comes to the exterior portion of the building, you know, with the window placements and façade treatment and 3D stuffs. How do you design with elevations in mind? How can I make a structure look effortlessly beautiful? I'd love to hear any ideas, insights or your most used techniques, or even your style! Thank you!

I think you need to ask yourself what you mean by beautiful and exceptional. These things can vary a lot based on personal taste, culture, experience etc. So once you know what that means for you, analyse buildings that you like. What is it about them that is striking? What is not so good? Why do you not like other approaches? What is appropriate for the project based on what other people have done? etc. There is not once single answer to this and being a student that is what you are studying to figure out.
Depending on where your site is located, adding some sort of shading device on the north or south façade can help your building function better and look visually interesting. Also analysing the context of your project and looking at how the surrounding buildings deal with façade treatments could help

Identify some buildings you admire. Stop admiring them and start studying them. Some architecture is good because it addresses the site in a certain way. Some architecture is good because it expresses the function of the building. And some buildings are good because there are beautiful details. And for so many more reasons they suck. Pick a simple idea and play the hand you have be a tough editor. If it a good idea and it doesn't fit the current project put in your pocket and save it for the next.

Suggestions for pivoting my career? I'm tired of working my ass off and getting paid far less than peers my age in other industries. My sense is that this industry is terribly underpaid considering the complexity of assembling a building today, but I would like everyone's thoughts on this. Context: I work as an Intern Architect in southern Ontario (eq to an apprenticeship / pre-license), working mostly on institutional, commercial, and public projects. I will be writing my licensure exams next year. I have six years experience across a variety of project types, an MArch (my graduate thesis received commendation), and I have my passive house certification through PHI in Germany. Over the past few years I have developed expertise in high performance, low energy, and low emissions projects - particularly relating to building enclosures. My salary is $65k with good benefits etc. Given today's rental housing market and the rising cost of living, I don't believe it's feasible in the long run. (Nor via my current trajectory.) I would love your thoughts on this - and suggestions for how to pivot my career, with the expertise I have developed in low energy / emissions projects. General thoughts also very welcome. Thanks, everyone.

You could flip houses. From what you have said, it seems that architecture was not the reason you entered the field. Should have investigated that before investing in it.
Just here to confirm that architecture is a terrible business model. Energy consulting is a good idea. If you like design there are other design areas that pay better (web design for one). If you have any proclivity for coding you can also find a niche there.

You and I pretty much am in the same situation. Got my MArch in 2018 and been working as an Intern Architect since then (pending my EXaC results). It drives me crazy when I compare the amount of time we put into the process of becoming an architect, the skills we get in project management, communication, building envelope, design and the cost of life! A friend of mine is earning about 35$/h in Montreal and started teaching ONE single course at Cegep (which would be college for you) which is quite demanding with her fulltime job at the office but her salary is almost doubling with only one class teaching. I am guessing this could be an option with your passive house certification and interest in low e projects! At least if you are interested in teaching, this could be an option.

Draw. Take something apart. Draw the pieces. Draw how they get put together. Be analytical and methodical.
Check out this video: Being an Architect When I was in your shoes, I was stuck between Engineering or Architecture. I took a drafting course my senior year and fell in love with Architecture. It seemed more creative and is more artistic. If you choose Architecture, you have to attend an accredited program, which are all 5 yrs for a B.Arch. Then you have the choice to go to grad school for a more focused path or start working. Grad school is about 1.5 - 2 yrs, depending on the program. It will def make you more desirable to hire but you’ll be investing more $ and time. On top of all this education, you have to pass 6 National exams and in my case, an additional state exam to become licensed and officially an Architect. It’s not an easy path, but if you’re passionate, it’s worth it. As far as giving you a leg up, I would learn how to draw by hand (1 to 3 point perspectives) and use computer design programs such as SketchUp, AutoCad and Revit. There are also others that animation majors use such as 3DS Max or Rhino. My school allowed you to bring in a design portfolio during enrollment to show that you understand design. This allowed some students to skip certain courses. Hope this helps and good luck!

One of my classmates actually went to law school after we got our graduate degrees in our twenties. I believe he specializes in cases related to the construction industry. I also worked with someone who had an architecture degree, but ended up getting a masters in mechanical engineering while working. He ended up working for a well known aerospace company shortly after he got his degree. He was great at modeling anything in Revit, regardless of how complex.

People who graduated with a degree in Architecture who do not work in the Architecture field, what do you do? Hopefully this can get a lot of responses, graduating soon with a 5 year accredited Barch and not totally sure I want to pursue this field the rest of my life.

One of my classmates actually went to law school after we got our graduate degrees in our twenties. I believe he specializes in cases related to the construction industry. I also worked with someone who had an architecture degree, but ended up getting a masters in mechanical engineering while working. He ended up working for a well known aerospace company shortly after he got his degree. He was great at modeling anything in Revit, regardless of how complex.
I have a reverse story. I'm a civil engineer that ended up in the architectural department. 😅🤣 (ok, I have an architectural high school degree beside engineering university.) 😬

PERE - took MSc RE finance, was much easier than Archi course tbh. Then one of the big RE consultancies and now small fund. Being the one on a project with the £ has a lot of positives

I know people who majored in arch: a doctor, construction manager, civil engineers, GC’s, carpenters, site safety managers, roofing subcontractor, product rep; lighting designer: artist; lawyer, preservationist, planner, owners rep, sustainability manager, but actually not many people who still work in the profession.
