Wish I was bold to quit architecture job 20 years ago. Thanks for your video
Another architecture graduate here who can relate to this video way too much... I've struggled for the past few years to truly find my passion after turning down working for a firm to work in Tech. It's always dawned on me that I'd made the wrong decision, but ultimately I realised that I have many passions which I need to explore to get the fulfilment which I want from life. Your 20's are a chance to take risks, fail and most importantly, find out what motivates you to get out of bed on a Monday morning.
Im growing tired of the grind and always yearning for other things. Tired of living for others benefit. I want to live for my benefit, my happiness, my purpose.
As a miserable and anxious 30 year old architect: I thank you from the bottom of my heart
you could design the layout of other people's apartment in your minimalistic style or remodel homes freelancing! I'm sure people would love it
Great idea!
People would rather risk that money on a licensed architect with a substantial track record to do that for them.
So basically go into interior design? I love how his apartment looks so I'm all for it!
People would love it, noone would pay for it:p It's the architect's curse.
What I've had trouble finding is good quality, convertible furniture that makes the best use of a small space. Standard furniture doesn't make good use of storage space or isn't easily folded away when not in use and the cheaper, temporary variety of furniture doesn't look nice. I want both! :-)
This isn’t exactly what I wanted to hear as a first year architecture student 😂 but congrats, I think architecture is a broader field than most people think. It can branch out into photography, woodworking, interior design, 3D printing, game world designing, etc.
omg yes .. im a first year archi stident too and i saw this😂
@@qudwatinajihah431 omg me too (O . O)!
Ooh yeei Iam a Second Year Arch Student from India
Ahhaha good luc
@@ComradeDt thnq😇
Ive been practicing for 10 years as an architect. I run my own office and eventually closed it this year. Really struggling since my clients also withheld their payments and I need to pay for overhead as well as provide for my family. Being an architect is difficult, and more difficult for me since Ive been battling bipolar and this pandemic. I wish you all the best, and wish we can get through everything
Good luck!
I’m at the verge of taking a decision similar to yours. But it still hurts me to drop architecture and I’m so confused although I’ve struggled with finding projects and getting paid since 2 years now.
I hope I can figure my solution soon.
Reham AbuAl-Saoud it took me 8 months struggling to find a job as an architect ...then I started a new career.
Happy or not won’t ’ make a difference.
If the one you love don’t love you..., leave it
M O I think that’s partially true...it’s the regret of all the effort that’s been invested in it that makes one wonder if they should keep trying ... it will workout I hope
Don't be sad everything will be coming better
"Anything you can be interested in, you can find others who are" - that statement just motivated and encouraged me to continue my grind 👍

It’s an Alan watts quote!
Congratulations bro! I did the same thing in May. When you have a creative job it never fulfils the creative part. And corporate will never respect creativity as much as they should. Glad to see life it working out great for you man!
CurrieGoat is here!!!! I Love your creativity and visuals.
I too always wanted to be an architect, and I have been for 45 years. What made me feel fulfilled was that early on I became interested in health care architecture planning and interior design. I worked on 200 projects- hospitals, clinics, medical offices, long term care, plus school and university projects, and I created spaces for people and useful public services. I never did developer or wealthy private residential projects, and most of the clients and user groups were good people to work with. Having these specific skills allowed me to work continuously, with 12 different job at small and large firms in 6 US cities and in China and the Mid East. Unlike most architects, I was never laid off or out of work; I was able to change jobs for positive reasons and end up as a principal in a major firm leading large project teams. Architectural training provides lots of analytical and organizing skills, beyond just drawing and design, and you can use it for what interests you. I encourage anyone to finish arch school, go through the necessary Registration process, then apply those skills to areas which you like long term. I’m proud I produced useful places still functioning today, not retail or commercial places that were demolished at the end of the lease. Find your joy, as they say.
Not sure if you’ll see this 10 months after posting but…
The idea of going into more debt to pursue a career that may not satisfy my love for design and materials is dishearten considering the time it takes to grind and get to a point where you are a principle architect. I’m young and I have a passion for travel but the idea of not being able to do so because of a career path I chose just hurts my soul.
I’m interested to hear your experience growing throughout different firms… is it always 9-5 working for someone else? Will I be depressed for the next decade trying to fulfill the dream of becoming a principle?
@@atrane3530 in large and even mid size firms projects are done by teams, not just a bunch of people drafting up the firm leader’s designs. A team has a Project Designer usually working with a Project Manager and a production team doing graphics and cadd work. Designers and managers and programmers work together to solve client problems with building solutions. Design and materials choices are part of the vocabulary but it’s a design and implementation process, not just ‘design an object you like’. I used to hire good team players with skills, not someone who just wanted to work alone. Go visit a few firms and see what they do day to day. If it doesn’t fit your goals that should be clear. I love to travel, and I was paid to travel to 10 different countries to use my planning, programming and client management skills, not to design objects. A typical project might be preliminary planning for a complex facility with 1 million SF and 1,000 rooms, in partnership with a local architect who can help design but has no idea how to begin.
It depends whether you enjoy being part of a team or if you just want to do very small projects you can control at all levels of detail. Even small jobs have clients who expect you to address their needs not just your desire to create forms. The problem with Arch education, I think, is the false idea of a Design Hero ( Wright, Corbu, Gaudi) who has a sudden brainstorm and then a building just magically happens. Trying to define what you want a contractor to build and then managing a collaborative effort is a complex process, not like one artist making a painting. The problem is Arch History being taught like Art History, as a series of individuals and movements, which leads students in the wrong direction. Think about activities you like, in terms of earning a living for 40 years, then decide about education costs.
@@atrane3530 you can travel as an architect just get hired by a company that’s not in your area
I'm happy to see architecture was a benefit to someone in terms of lifestyle choices. I have to say, its the best job I've ever had! I enjoy architecture a lot (at least at the moment, with the realization this may change at any point in the near future for whatever macroeconomic reasons).
@@josephyoung6749 I liked the variety of architecture, and especially going behind the scenes during the programming and design process. For a year or two, you become part of the client team and get to know their staff, facilities and operations, then you get to move on to something different. As you develop specialized expertise, there are opportunities to teach, speak or write as an expert. My main point here on TH-cam is to encourage students who are told architecture is too hard or requires too much math. I’m glad you are enjoying the field. Developing some specialized expertise is the best route to steady employment and financial success.
When you're passionate about what you do it reflects in all other areas of your life
I was going to study architecture ... all through my gap year. Changed my mind because some careers define you. You need to decide whether you want your job to be your life, or whether you want it to be just a part of your life (neither are better nor worse than each other ... it is down to who you are and whichever path works best for you). Instead, I am going for something a bit lighter ... still studying construction but doing it from a QS / Construction Manager perspective. Sure it probably isn't my dream job but my dream is not a job ... it is instead discovering variety in everything I do. Work hard, play hard ... but at the end of the day, play harder.
I agree with you. I am an architect at the beginning of my career and trust me, architecure is that job that defines you. I still have doubts about my choice - architecture - because I want to have more time to pursue other personal goals. Plus, you really need to learn a lot with each different project you take, and the laws change..
So true. They say architecture requires passion to get you through the toughest times and there are some people that are just extremely passionate about architecture as their job. However, just like cars for example, you don't need to be a mechanic to enjoy a car. Likewise, you don't need to be an architect to appreciate and enjoy architecture.
Exactly 👍👍
I'd honestly rather die now than spend the next 40 or even 20 years in front of a computer doing what others are telling me to do. I felt like my life is just meaningless by doing that. So I've made up my mind that once this office project is over by next year, I'll leave my corporate job and pursue what I really want.
But... what do you really want?
@@ggunter2730 Fortunately, I already know what I want. So that's what I am going after in a couple of months and I'm so excited for it.
@@jannedrumsit good luck, please tell us if ir works
Good Luck and Have fun 😊
@@nathaniel8413 thank you! Wishing you the same :)
Really interesting video Daniel. The sad truth is that most “careers” are just jobs, with all that that implies. The trick is to find the thing you really love that you can somehow monetise - enough just to support yourself. For me, it’s literally growing flowers for farmers markets, and in a few months, I’ll be able to quit my job and do this full time because I’ve set myself up on the side through sheer hard work and saving money. It won’t be a lavish lifestyle, but I’ll finally be truly happy in my work. Very best wishes to you - you’re a very talented fellow. Look forward to following along!
me watching this, in school to become an architect which is my dream job: :O
Literally same😶
same🥺
Saaame hahahhaha
Please no , if you are thinking better look for a different profession . It is not that simple and there is way too stress .
Literally same I’m watching this because my dream is becoming an architect
Actually, I'm on a verge on becoming an architect this year and I'm scared of being an architect that cannot make big choices in the firm, so in the future, I might just create my own firm after learning the first years how the world works in the architecture market.
Still so scared of my future holds! Thank you for your insight of this world of ours provides!
All the best Daniel, you’ll succeed in any endeavour you choose
I'm so happy that the algorithm brought me here. I've felt every single sentiment you've shared over the last 2 years. Funny enough I also studied architecture, graduated but never practised. It's been almost 5 years now and I share the same passions you do regarding photo, video, and story-telling in a way that helps us express ourselves creatively, but ends up helping others in at least 1 way. I'm here for your journey man, thank you for inspiring me to continue mine.
I have a friend who quit working as an architect due to low pay, high workload and stress.
He's driving a truck now. Slightly more pay and significantly less stress.
Our story is so similar. I too left my architecture job and choosed to work on myself full time and create content on TH-cam. It's been only 6 months for me, when I was doubting my decision.. Came across your video.. Thank you so much 😊
Hi Karuna,
I failed my architecture thesis & is totally lost right now.
Is there an architecture career left for me?
An exciting opportunity to explore new life options!
pig boner | There was no need for you to say that.
pig boner that’s why your hiding your face with an actors pic and a hideous name....ok
pig boner | What’s so wrong with a guy wearing makeup?
pig boner jealous you wouldn’t pull it off as well as I do? That’s ok... I’ll wear makeup for the both of us 🥰
pig boner | You can keep those kinds of comments to yourself though. There’s no need to bully someone over wanting to wear makeup. What pleasure do you get out of talking shit on this guy for wearing makeup? You should take your negativity somewhere else.
Wow, I never would have guessed! Thanks so much for uploading in the first place, your my favorite minimalist TH-camr. You actually inspired me to further my pursuit of minimalism!
This is so inspiring 😍 Your story helps me to be confident with my recent decision to start fresh in new city and follow my dreams. Wish you the best of luck and thank you for great content! ❤️
It was so interesting to hear you explain how you felt about the architecture industry and how it varied from your initial intentions of just wanting to help people. I went into the Interior Architecture industry wanting to provide my spatial skill sets to be able to help out the community by providing them with healthy environments that were sustainable, ergonomic, accessibility inclusive and mentally positive. Instead I found myself designing high end spaces for clients who don’t even use them and hold them as trophies over lower class people. It led me to pursue a Masters in Community Planning which has allowed me to finally work in a field that is people centric, and most importantly, benefits people who need it the most, not just for the ones who can afford it.
Aside from this long message, I just want to say thank you for sharing this message to your community. It is a valuable life experience you are sharing to us and I can only hope it inspires positive change in others lives. Keep doing the thing Daniel!
Hey there! Would you please tell where you did your masters in community planning?
@@HTo20 Dalhousie University in Canada! :)
Daniel, I am definitely sharing your videos to my loved ones, specially this one as it could help my cousin who is struggling to decide what she wants to do in her life and is just afraid to lose the security her job provides. Thanks for sharing your life and passion in YT.
Always get inspired, another perspective, and much food for thought from your content. Keep it up and thanks so much!
SO EXCITED FOR THIS!! More videos!! Do you do any DIY furniture design or building?? That’d be super cool too
Daniel, go for it mate. I love your channel and you are clear honest and each video is easy to watch and digest.
So happy that you have the opportunity to follow your passions! I have enjoyed your videos from the start. Your minimalist lifestyle has inspired me to follow suit. Please continue to share your architectural projects when you can. Wishing you the best on this next exciting journey.
Honestly I’m glad that you’re happy with what you’re doing. Hopefully I get there someday.
Thank you too Daniel, you were (you are !) a big inspiration in my minimalist path 🤗
I'm an architecture student trying to finish my thesis! Someone finally said it! These are the things that I think about when I lie awake in bed hahaha.
I'm doing my thesis too!! And thinking about what I want to do next... A job behind a desk in front of a computer sounds so boring. I love architecture but I hope some day I can use my hands in some project. Don't know what to do 😖
I would advise that you try architecture for at least 5-10 years to gain the experience. Then from there you can think about going into others related jobs like interior, construction, landscaping. You can change career while still in your 30s but not so much when you are in your 50s. Do your research, ask for advise from other architects, engineers, contractors etc. God bless us all in our career search for what we really want to do in our life.
Love to watch your videos! Please keep posting!
I am one of your followers who always wait for new videos and I’m glad you’ll have more time to make them. Excited for you on what lies ahead. Good luck to you, Daniel!
This was the kind of video I needed in a long time. Thank you so much!
Incredible video production and topic, you’re a natural on camera, keep up the good work 👏
I’m so genuinely happy for you!!! It’s not always the easiest choice to make, so cheers to you for believing in yourself!
It’s cool to see that TH-cam is still working for starters ;) you are doing a great job - I love to listen and to watch your content ;) good luck and keep on going
Really well said! I feel, as architects, especially in school, we are thought more to design for the eyes of other architects and build up on this feeling that we know better than what our clients actually want. And not many have this "awakening" that we are not actually designing for people.
I was recently let go from my job at an architecture office and it broke my heart. Yet somehow found immense joy in volunteering for an organisation that helps people build their own tiny houses, focusing of architectural photography and so on so it feels comforting to hear someone else is going through the same! Good luck and have a great time, Daniel!
Daniela Diaconu sorry to hear about your story. Don’t feel left out. All architects feel the same way you do. I too truly love to help others through my skills. FYI after 20 years there are other meaningful things to do other than Architecture. Best of luck to you.
Always stoked to hear about your insights - excited to see what's in store for you next!
Excited to follow your channel as you start this journey! Your storage solution for small homes video inspired me to easily build a bed frame with storage space underneath and it’s the best part of my apartment! Wishing you all the best!
The first half of the video was very very relatable, Daniel! Like you, I am an architect here and I feel the same fear as you have mentioned. The job security issue is so true. The corona situation just makes this situation a bit more miserable. Thanks for the hope at the end :D
You are an inspiration Daniel and your videos helped me get through this exact same big change in my life too and finally do what I love and be happy !
For the longest time, I've been considering taking the leap and go on my own but have struggled to make what I have always wanted to do come true. I don't know how your video appeared on my suggested lists but I am glad I ended up watching it. It's reassuring to find out that your experience and what you have set out to do resonates so much with my plans. Right now, I am just saving up and preparing for that moment when I know I'd be ready. Thank you so much, you have just given me hope to never give up on my dreams.
A voice from Japan. After getting my master degree, I’m now a license certificated architect who is working for an international office for 3 years. I don’t have any problem with my company, nice working environment and good wages. But even under this circumstances I’m not feeling happy already for a long time. And the question inner myself is getting bigger and bigger everyday. The story you told us in this video is totally related. Maybe it’s time to take a risk and move forward. Making change is hard and takes energy, but I really encouraged by your video. Thank you for sharing.
Good luck, looking forward to future content!!
Congratulations! Looking forward to more contents from you!
Really enjoying your content. Best of luck with the next step wherever it leads. Would be interested to learn more about your architectural insights
Love your videos. So Inspirational. And you can tell your a top lad!!!
Thank you! This video really helped me. You’re doing great, keep doing it!
This is actually so well said and so inspiring! Love it so much 💓
Thank you for this very useful video. I’m passing through almost the same thing, I’m an architect with some disturbing interests that I really like and enjoy.
You kinda inspired me some how, so thanks!
Keep it up 👍
You do it the Right way! Love your videos and the messages you spread. I be here too support you and can’t what for more great and creative videos.
So close to 100K subscribers. Good luck mate.
Daniel. Thank You. Post lockdown and fourlough with a twist of fate that has made life difficult to say the least, your decision and sharing your this has helped. Thank You. Good luck!
This is just what i needed to hear thanks my friend
Family support is everything❤ Many blessings to you and your family.
I'd like to hear a counterargument to this video on the realistic opportunities and positives to architecture school
I feel that architecture is really a dynamic field, the career path of an architect is to gain experience in a firm, have also the business and marketing side of it. Then if you can setup your own practice after 5-10 years of experience, that would be a good.
I really appreciate this video and your very thorough perspective on life in general. As a physician, I try to think of different ways to improve the lives of people and my approach to taking care of my patients. Your perspective always breathes a new air and I am glad to be a subscriber.
I am a nurse but there are a few reasons I love your videos and listen
1) Style - love your perspective and your videos always look so beautiful. Your content inspires my own interior styling
2) I like to see what other content you create because what you've done so far resonates with me and I want to apply some of your strategies to areas other than home
3) Your voice is so calming and they way you express yourself is so clear and concise
Looking forward to seeing the direction this channel goes. I know it's not a DIY channel but may be now we get to see you assemble your bed? Was thinking of doing something similar to maximise my storage
Thanks for sharing your story Daniel, always a pleasure watching your videos :)
you really nailed it on what im going through right now. thank you for this. it gives me clear vision on what I want. keep it up chur bro !
Loving the channel and this is one of your best videos!
I’m going into final year of Engineering at Uni and already having the same kind of concerns you talked about! I want to do something with engineering that really helps other people yet so much of it is basically about business now! I felt a bit mislead by people but your video has helped me as you must have gone through a similar thought pattern with architecture!
Good on you! Great things will come your way.
it’s crazy that your advice i just discovered on my own this week. I HAVE THE EXACT SAME FEELING. i just want to cut out the middle man on creative projects and that basically means being your own boss and being self employed, a youtuber or businessman etc
Thanks for the videos, I have really enjoyed your work. Like yourself I recently walked away from a well paying hub as a physiotherapist and have begun work on starting my own health clinic. Yesterday marked a special day as the lease has been signed and the clinics location is set. I look forward to more of your videos for inspiration for my own life journey. All the best
Thank you so much for such a wonderful video bro!
Your story really resonates with me. I made the decision to go out on my own a month ago after 6 years of employment at a reputable architectural firm in Nairobi, Kenya. I'm a little scared, but it's the most peaceful I have felt in a long time. Thank you too from the bottom of my heart for sharing this. X.
I LOVE THIS, THANK
YOU DANIEL!!!!!
Good luck! Love your videos
This video is so inspiring, I can relate to your story so much!!!
Incredible content. I don’t know how TH-cam found out I am going through these realization at the moment, and suggested you video to me, but I’m glad it did. I am pumped up even more now after you inspiring video.
Subscribed to you channel already.
Thank you for sharing that ! It was very brave and I truly appreciate it!
Thanks for the words of wisdom, brotha. I, too, have been guilty of this; being stuck at a 9-5 and not truly enjoying what I am doing. Time to challenge myself and see where I can grow independently.
congratulations! looking forward to seeing you more on here
Thank you very much for this! It really does open my eyes to what’s currently going on in my life. I’m a flight attendant here in the states and my last day is September 29th due to furloughs caused by the COVID-19 outbreak. I’m left puzzled and stuck on what I should do. However viewing this video has definitely helped. I appreciate all your videos! Some of the advice you have given has stuck in my mind! Thanks Daniel!
Congarulations! Great video. Wellcome to the club. And thank You!
Wow! This hit home. You said everything I’ve been thinking!!!! Great video! Two thumbs up 👍🏼👍🏼
All your videos were inspirational.. Love the concise & calm atmosphere presented here.. Definitely worth subscribing.. Looking forward to more contents in the future 👍
Best of luck! I did so too few months ago but still can't figure out what I am really excited about when it comes to a viable career path!
Good for you man.... So encouraging!
Bravo 👏🏽 ! You will do great! I took a leap and failed miserably and ran back to what I used to do. But the desire of breaking out on my own is still there. I feel like if I continue to honor that voice, learn from my past mistakes, and be more discipline, I may perhaps get there....who knows 🤷🏽♀️
Well done for standing back for an overview of where you’re at, good luck with your path. I’ve been really enjoying your minimalist design vids and that fact that you manage to design with practical real world stuff. I graduated interior design in 1991 having written my dissertation about Walter Segal and the community self build movement. I never went into practice - like many of your reasons, it wasn’t for me. I’ve had a long and varied career - including renovating a 1 bed flat and then renting it out for most of the 20 yrs I owned it (sold it recently to buy a small holiday let biz which is not making me much £ cos I keep renovating that too lol ) - I love efficient space. Hubs and I just downsized and now have a 1 bed cottage which we gutted (nice to see we both chose the same kitchen ;) so I still get to play with that urge to diy and create space. I did get tempted back into the corporate world of economic devt in my 30s for a while but now aged 50, I’m enjoying teaching yoga.... follow your heart and enjoy what you are doing, always lots of ways to get to where you wish to be...
Thank you. I studied architecture and felt the same when I started practicing. I’m too much of a creative fro this field. Basically hit the nail on the head with all the topics you picked.
I'm an architect. I don't practice anymore because of these exact reasons mentioned in your video. Although you've beautifully articulated my thoughts. Awesome content 👏
PLEASE post your photos on your Instagram 😊
I feel like a lot of architects have been feeling this way for a while. I've been wondering if there were ways to give back more to the community and nature. Unfortunately businesses don't seem to value those kinds of work yet.
딸기우유 I agree!
same here
Can I ask what you do now a day? Has it worked out? Best wishes
@@melaniedejesus3667 freelance translator
It's very cool to hear stories like yours. It makes me believe that one day in some way I can also do the same. Hope things keeps working for you. Really enjoyed your video about your minimalist flat. I'll keep watching your content.
Hey Daniel. I just wanted to say this was super inspirational for me. I went to school to go into education. But, my passions have started to drift into the more creative avenues like photo/video. I think I've always had this voice in my head that talked about job stability and using that as almost an excuse for not trying to branch out. Thank you for doing what you do and sharing your experience on here.
Very inspiring! Love your show!
Your channel is unique thanks for the life tips as always.
All the good luck to you and hope you do extremely well!
Congrats on this step you’ve taken. I’m currently in the saving stage that you mentioned and so much of what you said has been what I’ve been going through. Just struggling the most now to find my purpose.
Wow! First of all, congrats on this new journey!👏🏻 I'm sure it will be filled with fun and excitement!
TBH, this video gave me a nudge in the head. I am not happy waking up every weekday for work, and you, reminding us to do what we are passionate and happy about has made me reassess how I am doing and how I can also move out of the work I am not happy with. Thank you for this video!
Sure will be seeing more of you in the coming days. See you, Dan! 👍🏼
Thank you Daniel for this video. It makes me stop and think "what if"? But the past is yesterday, not wasted, but a constant learning experience I can use to start reinventing myself today!
Thanks for your sharing on this, there are some points you mentioned that really make me think and realize again with my current job here.
I love this 👏🏼 I got my undergraduate and graduate degrees in engineering, and I got my dream job at Apple right after college. 6 years later, I quit that job for the same reasons you list here. In the past year I’ve been able to build a company around a product that genuinely helps people, and it feels so damn good. I totally resonate with your story Daniel!
That said, for those in school still figuring out your life path, it’s nice to have a padded bank account by working in industry for a few years so you can finance your future dreams. Don’t feel like you need to go off and live your dream right away before you know what it is. There is nothing wrong with working a 9-5 either!
You are one very brave man! Good luck and God bless to your new endeavor!
From architect to another architect, wish you the best! Congrats, very brave!
You always produce great and varied content that I look forward to watching. Fantastic video and editing skills too. Congrats and looking forward to more videos! Now you've inspired me to work on my sewing project :)
Hey Daniel, gosh, you’re spot on with this....I’m pretty much in the same boat as all those Architects below who’ve come to the end of the line with their long and expensive courses only to find out the working world for this field is filled with bureaucracy, terrible working hours and bosses who will do anything to get every single cent and more out of you. Architecture is indeed an inspiring course that equips you with a wide variety of skill sets. Imagine what we could accomplish if we all came together to change the world!
I identify with Henry, my other passion would be tech too. Used to be the tech guy for my course mates. Ah the good old days. I’m glad you found your passion that works for you. Hoping the rest of us do too!
I can relate the feeling that there is always someone above you. I think we are all looking for a little more freedom lol. Congratulations on the big step! 🍾
