Why?  I don&#8217;t know.  The mainstream media? The film industry?  Sadly, those who pursue the profession for the gobs of money, a big house and a [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So I came across another interesting article, “Architecting Your Exit”. Now I initially found this odd because not much design goes into the exiting of a building. The building code has very specific criteria with thousands of minimums and maximums that govern how high, how wide, how low and how many. All contained in 184 [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Myth #1:  I can’t afford an architect. This is number one because it is the most mis-understood. An architect will make your budget his or her best friend and will negotiate to get the best materials and the best workmanship for a good price. More bang for your buck. An architect will not only advocate [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[As a student of architecture you become quite familiar with &#8216;the crit&#8217;. This is where your work is continually scrutinized and critiqued, sometimes brutally. These sessions usually take on one of two formats, the desk crit or the wall crit.  A wall crit involves the whole class and one to four+ critics consisting of professors, recent graduates, local architects, etc. These sessions [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Personality is an important quality to consider when determining who will design your project. The architect you choose will need to work well with many types of people and professions, and most importantly he or she needs to work well with you and the builder/contractor.
