I found this work of a vietnamese architect /architects by accident. It is the project of their own office a21 studio - called the ROCK OFFICE - literally build with rocks. It is interesting how the spaces are smartly articulated – one form creating a few parts with each of the individual courtyards as the central point. I am actually more attracted to their simple, basic and not very expensive study model which powerful conveys the idea of the design!! .. very charming!!
However, other projects done by this office aren't as interesting. I guess it is the fate of most architects when they have a client - meaning, eventually architects dont have control over their own 'creation'.
If an architecture student can push through his or her idea in school – does not mean he or she will be able to do so in the real practice. (it’s not easy BUT IT IS POSSIBLE)
If an architecture student can't push through his or her idea in school – what do you think will be the fate of this graduate architect in the real practice?
