The classroom and the office are the two main settings where we learn about the practice of architecture, yet both expect the other to fill in more than a few gaps. Maybe schools shouldn’t emphasize the “technical details” and instead focus on teaching how to design; or maybe a little technical knowledge would be great preparation for that first job out of school (where you won’t get to design much more than a straight line). No matter which ideology you subscribe to, there will always be a disconnect between the classroom and the office.
Our webcomic, Architexts, features a character named Tim who attends school at an unnamed, practice-based architecture program. Tim faces all the challenges one would expect when attending a demanding educational program, while also working full-time in the profession.
Whether you were a full-time student, a part-time student that worked full-time, or an educator, we want to hear your experiences and insights for our forthcoming book, Architects, LOL. Check out Architexts for information on submitting your stories and insights for this book.
Cape Sounio is noted as the site of ruins of an ancient Greek temple of Poseidon, the god of the sea in classical mythology. The remains are perched on the headland, surrounded on three sides by the sea.
The site is a popular day-excursion for tourists from Athens, with the sunset over the Aegean Sea, as viewed from the ruins, a sought-after spectacle.
