The first thing I noticed upon arriving at Florence Architects was the welcoming environment. Jason and Dylan both were more than willing to help with any questions I had. Trust me there were a lot of questions career day held many then they did not stop on my first day of work. What strikes me most about my colleagues is the wide range of responsibilities they have, but still work efficiently together on multiple projects simultaneously. As a small firm, they work together with Jason creating many of the larger designs, and Dylan helping with lots of the accent pieces along with any other work needed to be completed on a project. As well as help me with the 3-D design software we use called SketchUp. Architecture is acutely similar to what I expected it to be. Lots of work on houses, while making revisions due to city code or critique. I am still surprised by the amount of effort put in to create a design that is able to be read by a contractor or somebody other than an architect. The vision must be clear for all parties and there is a large amount of work put into making this work. Currently, I am most excited to continue working on the design I started this week. It is my first time using all of these programs and so far I am feeling confident in the whole thing. Yet, at the same time, I am worried about the timeline of the whole thing. I have an entire internship to work on it but as a novice, it is taking me a long time.
