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 particular I liked a lot because I was able to know and learn about the begennings of architecture, where it comes from, how it is presented and how I was recognize it not only in old building or ruins, but also in modern constructions.

    Hi Karen! I see that we were classmates without knowing it. Personally, it was also one of the courses that I liked the most. For me, it was very interesting to have an architectural vision of these different periods, because I only had historical knowledge or I only knew the history of thought in these different periods.
    It's impressive how in a period of 2 to 3 centuries a society has had an impact on the subsequent millennia to the present day.

    Hello Karen! I took this subject last year, and it was one of my favorites, there we can learn many things about ancient culture and its architectural perception. I remember that our teacher recommended us a modern Italian film and how the monuments of ancient Rome made a composition in each scene, it was one of the work that I enjoyed the most.

    Hello dear Karen, reading your post I realize that you liked the subject and I'm sorry for the short time you spent on it, but at least you learned and that's what really matters.

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.

A MEAL OR FOOD YOU REALLY LIKE  The truth is, I like any food that has rice, no matter what kind of accompaniment it has, I know I would like it just for the fact that it has rice but if I had to choose only one it would be SUSHI, I love sushi because in addition to bringing rice it has a great variety of other ingredients, from fish, meat, cheese to fruit and vegetable, all that in JUST ONE PIECE!! It is fascinating. Sushi is well kown for the technique used when preparing, it since the ingredients are put in a square of seaweed with rice that then must be wrapped until leaving it in a roll, and that is the complicated thing. I have done on my own twice and it is a very laborious, especially when you are inexperienced and do not have help, it takes a long time to prepare and a lot of perfection when it comes to wrapping and that what you do looks like a roll trying not to spill anything, it is somewhat difficult but not impossible because I managed to do it!!! I think that all foo...

 HOW CAN MY MAJOR MAKE THE WORLD A BETTER PLACE? The architecture sector is characterized by being a highly polluting area, since for this to be carried out, large quantities of materials are necessary that in their production and handling emit large amounts of gases, which is obviously natural but due to the intervention on the human being there is an increase. However, the concern on the part of society to make the world a less polluting place is increasingly evident, which is why sustainable building are proposed, also called green building, which are constructions that contribute to the improvement of the environment, factor that is necesary for human confort. It is for this reason that I see myself learning more and more about my career and its relationship with the environment is highly damaged by construction work and building operations that respond to the high demographic demand.
