But i said no, it was the first name of the business and i stuck to it. Why i chose Architecture as a career? Well, i always wanted to have my own business someday. I love architecture and think am good at it so i decided its time to try out doing something for myself. It's so bad i typically tend to think about architecture all the time, I do. Not just the big ‘A’ type of buildings or projects, b
ut every little thing from every where I go. I go somewhere and start looking at materials, form, massing, lighting, etc. If I take a trip somewhere, I start by planning it around the buildings I want to visit. Probably 90% of all the books I buy (not including children’s titles) are about architecture – I even put them on my Christmas list. Not to go off course, but personally i think people tend to respect and architect, even if they don’t really understand what we do, there is a perception that architects are ethical and responsible and will endeavor to make the right decision to our own detriment. It’s part of the reason that ‘architect’ is chosen so often as the vocation for title characters in movie and TV roles. Architects aren’t generally viewed as driven by financial rewards like doctors or as scurrilous as lawyers (can be). As an architect, we are given certain project parameters that help guide the direction of our projects. We are then given the freedom to pursue the artistic embodiment of those parameters. 10 architects with the same client and the same project parameters will provide 10 different solutions. Anyways, these are some of the reasons why i decided to become involved in Architecture and how Red Chronos Architecture came about.
