On April 14th, a group consisting of an architect, an interior designer, and (I believe) a city planner came to visit us. This was an important visit for me because I am interested in architecture and am currently deciding whether I want to spend my time in college studying architecture or engineering. One is almost solely artistic and one almost solely mathematic, I enjoy both and therein lies my dilemma. Yet, this visit was nothing but helpful; they provided some great information on upcoming buildings in our area while also talking about where they went to school and the different types of degrees that exist for people in their respective fields. One thing that I was left wondering was, what is a typical day like in the life of an architect? I know that they make it out to sound fun and exciting by showing us all of the new buildings, but how much of the time does the architect actually spend sculpting this building with a pen and paper or on computer software? These were some fundamental questions that went unanswered, yet from their demeanor I could assume that they were happy with their jobs; in other words they all seemed happy, and that’s all I want.
