1 My
experience at Interior Architects made me rethink how I want apply myself in
the professional world. Originally I thought that I wanted to go into design
purely residential, but now after my few hours spent at Interior Architects I
am finding myself reevaluating the field in which I want to go into once I
graduate. I was with my classmate Cole and we were first introduced to a
Washington State Interior Design Alumni by the name of Amanda. She was very
helpful when we asked questions about the transition from the college
programming into the real-world working environment by saying that there is a
bit of a learning curve but as long as you apply yourself and do your best you
are likely to succeed. The second person we spoke to was named Tosh. Tosh is
one of the senior designers and he was working with one of his colleagues
trying to figure out how they were going to compromise and collaborate, to come
to a decision on what finishes to choose for a particular client’s space. This
was exciting for me because I got to see a firm working first hand on how they
work as a team to solve design problems and make choices for a real life space.
By getting a taste of how an architectural firm works, I have reevaluated what
field I want to enter when I initially hit the job market after graduation. I
see how the commercial industry has many more opportunities for networking and
can still have fun aspects of design- just like residential, with more of a
professional work atmosphere of a firm is most definitely something I will be
looking into thanks to this experience.
