Entry 11

My professor in The Making Of Architecture has us drawing every single class. This week we would walk in, spend 30 minutes drawing connections, and then lecture. The whole process is really teaching me a lot about the construction field. He will ask a question, and the entire class just looks at him because the answer seems too easy to be correct. In construction, it seems that the logical explanation is correct. This mentality is so different from all of the other architecture classes that I have taken because normally we are taught to think beyond the ordinary and usual. Sometimes he asks for suggestions on what to draw, he will draw it, and then tell us that he has never drawn that connection before. This class has taught me that if you know the process, then you can reason out the connections even if you have never drawn them previously.
