WAS SUPPOSED TO BE POSTED LAST MONDAY. THE REVIEW WAS TODAY.
Our midterm review is next Monday. Of course I'm not as far as I'd like to be but my professor seems to be okay with what I've got so far. I really dread talking to him about my project, although that's true with all my professors. Something about him just rubs me the wrong way. Last time he came by he told me I haven't seen enough of the world yet, so that probably has something to do with it. He just seems too practical, and I usually like the practical professors because I tend to be much more practical than my peers. He told me not to do two angled walls because it was too complicated and that's why you don't see it very often in other buildings. He said other architects don't do what's too complicated. Well, those weren't his exact words but you get the gist. Anyway, that is complete bull. Complicated is interesting (not that simple isn't), and a lot of architects want interesting. His comments aren't all bad though. He has given me some good direction.
I just wish that I could explain my ideas eloquently. I never know what to say in a review or even a desk crit. What exactly does architectural style mean anyway? I mean specifically. And when he asks me what architectural style I'm using, is that really what he's asking? Most likely not. It seems like he really just wants to talk because he jumps in whenever I start talking.
Bah. I'm done ranting.
I have structural models and a floor plan to do before Monday. Plus whatever I feel like throwing in. If I don't make it, I will be very ashamed.
