Post 5: My future job

First I have to say I haven’t thought too much about what kind of work I would like to have, yet.

One thing is for sure: I will be an architect. Since I started studying this career I knew that I was in the right place. The thing I like more about architecture is the creative part, the fact that you can, and must, put all your imagination in a project.

That is why between all the things that an architect can do, I would like to do architectural design. I imagine myself in an architecture office working with other professionals, and other architects as well, in a massive project. I would like to design huge unique buildings destined to be apartments, public buildings, offices, etc.

I don’t like much the other options like urbanism or buildings renewal. I don’t like the first because I think that it is very difficult to design at that scale and it is even more so to make sure your project will be built. And on the other hand I don’t like to renovate buildings because I think it is an obstacle to work with something that is already built, I prefer to design everything from the beginning.

Obviously I would like to earn a lot of money, I would be very happy, but money isn’t a problem for me. The only thing I want is to have enough money to live a peaceful life. The things I would love to have at work is enough salary, free time and a flexible schedule.
