WHY DID I CHOOSE MY MAJOR?

 Well, from a very young age I was clear about what I wanted to study, I loved it and I still like to draw the house of my dreams, wherever I go I have to go with my sketchbook and my pencils, putting references on a sheet of paper.

However, in my adolescence, having been clear about the degree I wanted to study generated doubts, this because as the years went by at school, my classmates wanted to study something different every day, and that made me wonder if it was okay to have closed to, just one carrer and not have been more options. From there I started looking for other careers that I liked but none compared to what I wanted to study, which was architecture.

Finally, I stayed with architecture, this is my second year and so far I have had a good online experience, waiting for a face-to-face experience.

  1. Is so good that you followed your lifelong dream to study architecture, Karen! I'm so glad that tomorrow there will be an architect who loves what she does like you. And I really admire that you go everywhere with your sketchbook to draw a lot because personally I'm terrible at it and I never practice.
    I'm sure that you will be a great professional!

  3. It's great to know that when you were a child you already knew what you wanted to study. In my case it was the opposite, so I envy you a little haha.
    By the way, I’m glad to hear that your online experience has been good, and I really hope we can return to face-to-face classes soon.

WHO AM I?  I'm Karen I was born in Santiago but now i live in Colina. I'm studing architecture at the university of Chile, a career that I have liked from a very young age, Y always knew that I wanted to study architecture.  I really like listening to music, it is one of the  things I do most of the time, I do everything with music because it disconnects me from the world and it relaxes me a lot. Another thing I like is cooking, experimenting in the kitchen, and now, in a pandemic I have had more time to do it, obviously with music. About my family, I can tell you that there are four of us in total, my parents, my sister and me. With the arrival of the pandemic we have been able to be more together, something that did not happen before, due to work and study ussues, now he have the possibility of doing everything online and from home, which allows us to have more time at home with our family.
A SUBJECT YOU'VE ENJOYED STUDYING  THIS SEMESTER  The subject that I enjoyed the most and that I took this semester was "Culture of classical architecture", and that unfortunately I only had once a week. In general, they were expository classes, taught by Rodrigo Booth, which only notes were taken, which later helped us to  develop the theoritical work, with the exception of some occasions where the work was practical. This subject proposed to revisit the idea of the classical in architecture overtime, and for this the origin of the classical form in Greek and Roman antiquity is analyzed, and its reinterpretation from the renaissance to the contemporary world. Among the topic could be found the history of classical architecture in Greece and Rome, and its various emblematics constructions, the transition of this type of architecture from antiquity  to the renaissance and from the renaissence to the modern era. Personally, I avoid any history subject but this one in p...
 A CAREER-RELATED WEBSITE In the middle of searching for information on websites for my work, I came across one that helped me a lot, which is "plataforma arquitectura"(https://plataformaarquitectura.cl/cl). This is a website that provides many sections either to see projects, works, photos, contacts, educational content to the latest new in terms of architecture, It is characterized by being an easilly accessible page, both to enter it and to explore within. The truth is that I do not use it every day but only every time I need it, It is the first page I visit above all the others that may exist. I like this site more than all the others that I have founds since It was easy for me to adapt to it, in addition to that until now it has given me all the information I have needed and if not, It allows me to obtain the contact, as a number telephone or email, so that I can communicate personally with this architects of my interest.
