Our third-year project included design of a community building, restoration of a protected church and design of a new 39-unit medium density housing block and all relating landscaping. This has been a huge challenge as we attempted to pull many different facets of architectural design together. The jump from second to third year has been a lot but has been something which I believe has challenged everything I understand as an architecture student and pushed my ability forwards leaps and bounds. After this year I am beginning to see myself as capable of a professional life as an Architect and no longer view that goal as a farfetched dream.”
Studying Architecture has allowed me to explore a lifelong interest and realise a lifelong ambition. The insight I have gotten into the profession has just further fuelled my excitement and ambition to become an architect. The design heavy philosophy of the course is something I enjoy and hope I can carry into my professional life as an architect.
