Young Architect

Young Architect

This is a very helpful, and at times controversial, blog from the perspective of a young architect about 5 years out of school. The site began as just another design blog but completely transformed into something else not too long ago. He began writing posts from his perspective for those just starting in the field or still in school. Reading his opinions I at times become scared about some realities that we all must face, especially his belief that the C students eventually become the bosses of the A students. So I would like to begin a discussion about this perspective and how you all perceive the world of architecture at your current position in the field.

The C student is about efficiency and productivity. While their designs may not be as innovative as the A student, their talents will lend more towards successful completions of real life projects. As the C student continues to meet expectations within a company environment, they will advance into management or even start their own companies.

I have been following this UK designer for a bit now. Though his work may not be the most cutting edge his documentation definitely is. Other then PSDtuts, I have not seen any other resource on the net so eloquent and informative on basic design processes in the Adobe programs we know and love. Check out the wallpapers I made below from tutorials I found on his site. Even though you may not be enthused by these examples of graphic design, the skills I have learned in photoshop from tutorials like these have helped my architectural renderings ten-fold.
