Should You Go To Architecture School?

Should you go to architecture school? And the answer to me is that like a lot of things in life, it depends. The good thing about architecture school is that you can do a lot of different things with that degree. You could go into contracting, you could go into development, you could go into a variety of different things that are even way different than architecture.
If you're interested in the sort of building industry in general, there's a lot of different people involved. As you're working on projects, you'll see that architecture itself is like the middle bit of a much bigger process. It's really, really interesting how little the architects actually have to say about the process. When you talk to developers and you see how they're literally shaping cities before architects are even really involved to design the actual buildings, you'll see that that's one of the reasons I got into development.
Honestly, I went to undergrad in the late nineties for no reason other than I liked to draw, and that was about where it stopped. I knew one person who was my dad was an attorney, so I sort of grew up in this like analytical way of thinking, and I still carry that today.
