The Truth About Architecture 

ARCHITECTURE - Arch+technology+culture Arch is the first formed element And architecture is the art of creating with help of technology and implementing the culture...

Already been preparing for that. Drawing ✅ Staying up late ✅ Spending a lot of times doubting on myself✅ Stepping out of my comfort zone (not yet completely)

Am I the only one noticing the Llyan clap counter? So cute! Hahaha.

Architecture is the most practical manifestation of the least practical dreams and ideas we have as human beings for living, working, playing, and procreating.

Architecture program in our school was like 1st year: 8 sections (40students per sec) 5th year: 1 section (20students) BoooOooOm it's a trap

Architecture is giving life to a spaces. Where the space actually do a work.

Architecture in my philosophy is about continuous creating and discovering. It's a continuous process of learning and experiencing various ups and downs as an Architect. It's an activity or a profession where you can explore the depths of your creativity and potential to incorporate that into a reality.

Noong bata ako sinasama ako ng tatay ko sa construction site at pinapanood ko sya magpalitada.. sinasabi nya di nya natapos ang Architecture kaya tumatak sa isip ko ako magtutuloy. Thanks God Architect na ako ngayon🙏 at ngayon my goal is to inspire thru my story.

It is cool that there is an Architect Uploading videos that can be helpful for incoming architecture students on some tips and tricks, keep on posting videos and keep on inspiring other people. #SaArkitektoSigurado

"watching anime whenever you're stress about architecture school" AaaaaaAaaAaa SO ME 😂😂😂

Hey Llyan, you just got a new subscriber.. As for a third year architecture student, what I believe to be the answer of What is Architecture? - It's the Knowledge & Action that creates the most suitable building for a certain purpose beautifully. But man, I wish I knew your channel earlier, but I guess I'm not too late.. keep it up!

Your words made me feel relieved (I dont know if it is spelled right) i got into arhutecture school some months ago and its been pretty rough, I'm doing fine but everything is so hard, i haven't slept many days and I am not even one of the best of my class. I've been doubting about my life lately but you made me realize I need more time to see my porgress. As always, amazing video, Llyan:)

Most licensed architects in the PH employed in a company make as low as 15k a month and this pay will only improve after unreasonable years of experience. Freelancers on the other hand have to struggle with a.) finding clients b.) haggling with these said clients c.) constantly competing with unregistered architects and other professionals who have nothing to do with architecture. And all these with the most minimal support/protection the government and associations can provide. It also doesn’t help that we live in a society where architects are not seen to be as important as engineers. Architecture is mostly seen as luxury that clients don’t need to spend on. My point is, it would be much more helpful for aspiring architects or students if they were introduced to these issues beforehand. They should be aware of the existing problems in the field so they can be prepared. Architecture is not as fancy and sophisticated as it looksin the movies lol. You see, broken expectations can often lead to broken spirits. It takes a lot of patience, hard work, thick skin and even network and chance to make it in this industry. Or maybe, I’m just of one of those sad and frustrated architects who unfortunately experienced the other spectrum of Philippine architecture . Lol. That said, good job on your channel. Wish your tips were around when i was still in school. 👍

I'm a fifth year student and this vid just boost me up wooooow 😱 just what I needed for this upcoming school year 🙌 thank you po, pls continue on inspiring ppl. specially the aspiring architects like us 💕

I loooooove your backdrop lightinggggg

Hahaha. That Llyan Clap Counter though! LoL😂 Filling up my sketchbook so that I have reserve ideas for my first year wuuuu! 💕😂 Can't wait to apply all the tips and tricks that I've learned from you! 😁😇

I failed my design 2. 😭😭 I feel so worthless and it hurts like hell but I'll continue my journey and I want to finish this program no matter what.

incoming architecture student here, im freaking nervous for my first year!

amazing video!!!!! currently, a rising undergraduate junior studying architecture. Architecture is problem-solving through the process of design in order to create a space in which people can interact with.

another great video about architecture and its insights thank you llyan

Architecture is the balance of creativity and logic. It the love child of art and civil engineering. Architects are the masters of creativity and logic.

Architecture, I believe, needs a lot of passion. I'm an Architecture student myself and currently struggling through my final year. It's been a train wreck of emotions because being a designer means you have to always face criticism. It's up to you to take in the harsh comments and improve yourself or to stand your ground and convince the lecturers, clients or boss, why your idea is good. I cried many nights, looked over at my drawings thinking I can never be good enough. I used to be very passionate in designing but slowly it became a chore, especially when you have time constraints and need to meet the demand of other people. I cannot even say that after finishing my studies, I will land a good job in a good company with a good pay. It's a terrifying thought, especially after spending so much on study materials. Surely there's no reward? But if you're passionate enough, you will see fruits in small details. Through Architecture school I learned to listen to people, to take in criticism and turn it around. I learned to explain my ideas, aspirations and imagination to people through drawings using both manual skills and computer aid. I look back at my drawings and think, "Wow, I made that." One day, I hope I can say the same while looking at a constructed building.

Starting my architecture degree this fall at FIU! Super excited 😊 !!!

Omg im excited to my first year of architecture using this tips and hacks❤️

For me, architecture is an amazing course which I wish to strive. It's a thing where creativity is needed and as well logic - I actually find architect amazing because there are many buildings in these world which have different characteristics and structure and guess who designed them? Architects! My definition of architecture may change time to time but my love for it will not ❤ I'm a Grade 9 student and I wish to be an Architect someday hehe. Good video btw hehe ❤

I've set my goals. I'LL FREAKING BE IN THE TOP 1O BOARD EXAM PASSER!

For me Architecture is to build something worth remembering. Im taking archi and im already enrolled. I'm freaking nervous, even though its pandemic i choose modular instead of online so i would have a lot of time to study and i just want to thank sir llyan for your videos i've learned a lot. It seem like you're my prof hahaha i started last month to sketched and i saw that progress i'm so happy! Keep on making videos sir so i could increase more knowledge n skill about archi. God bless!

Thanks a lot been watching your videos lately and I love every bit they have been inspirational

Whenever I hear about architects and their comparatively low income It gets depressing to move forward lol

Architecture for me is to express Ur feeling not in words bt with a visual connect ..that is a form

I just found your account and wow! Amazing how you can manage to make videos and be an architect! I really wanna make arki related videos as well pero I have little time or little energy 😩 feeling inspired while watching your vids 😊 Keep up the great work, Architect!

great vid for upcoming architecture students and should really be a MUST watch vid for students who plan to enroll the course

When I was a student, I don't do overnight drafting since I do most of it during the provided drafting hours at school or the vacant hours. My classmates do a lot of overnight drafting because they tend to procrastinate a lot. The trick is you really have to manage your time and use it wisely coz you still have to study for other subjects. As for my designs, its always simple and straightforward to provide a solution to the design problem. Being an architect is really not my passion but I'm still smart enough just to continue being one. If I had known that this is what being an architect is, then I would've chosen another path, which I am currently looking at now.

Dat clap counter tho 😂 This vid was comforting, atleast for me. I'm in my 3rd year of architecture school and every plate has me torn apart with wanting to give up. I'm not really good at the drawing department but I really love architecture and how it makes people feel these emotions. How I get goosebumps when I see structures that really blow me away. And I wanna do that for other people too. That's why I try my best to get better at my weak points hehe and it's cool that you talk about it so casually that it makes your viewers laugh while learning. Hoping for more videos poooo :) more power!

Thank you for sharing your experience and knowledge 😭😭

I took a break from architecture for a couple months to restore my historic home. I’m showing it on my channel and honestly I’m loving the physical work that goes into design

Architecture is not merely about designs and making beautiful buildings. Architecture should be able to calm you, exxcite you, and make you think.

ARCHITECTURE IS LIFE-SAVER! I was depressed. I've been in the darkest place I could ever been. I lost track to my life. Basically, I had an empty mind to plan my future that time. And sometimes that void inside me still comes back and make relapse but architecture saved me, dreaming about getting a degree in it one day is a goal I would forever be proud of. Kaso napakamahal ang mag-aral nito. May libre nga limitado naman ang tinatanggap. Sa ngayon, nasa wait list pa rin ako kahit sinabi na sa interview na mababa na talaga ang chance. :( Iniisip ko na nga next year mag-aantay ulit ng chance pa lang dito, willing ako. :( Share ko lang po, watching your videos inspire me so much, Sir! :)

I am an Mozambican architecture student, you've been helping me a lot with your videos! Thanks. The bad thing about architecture is the refund/salary, specially in countries like mine.

I love your lights at the back like owemji i want that

Architecture is the flowing emotion and passion altogether emerged resulting an amazing masterpiece!

Hey , I am 1st year architecture student . While going through all comments section i found many things i can relate but my philosophy as a individual it is all about your creative and being practical to explore and discover. If might be funny but its about discovering yourself to some extent as being the student of architecture : " every one of us is the architect of our own fortune" with all determination and hardwork. So, its not an easy subject subject we choose but not that tough enough because you can love yourself. Coz Architecture is You and you are change maker about making choices. Huge world to live and survive. ❤️ Wishing everyone a good luck 😊 #Stay positive and #work hard 😁

Great Video mann!! All ur videos are so informative!! Hoping u to make a video about mastering the perspective hihi thank you pal!! Flying peace!!!!

EXCELLENT VIDEO! I live in a pre-fabricated house here in West Palm Beach, Florida, a Sears-Robuck kit that my mother and I believe was originally built in the early 1930s. Regrettably, building records from long ago are nearly impossible to procure now because the county has a practice of burning their records every decade. However, even though it was a Sears kit done in the "Craftsman" style, it is clear that someone put a lot of time and care into how it was built. It feels like a proper home instead of a product. For instance, the floors are made out of Dade County pine, a wood that is now extinct. More modern structures can be beautiful, there just needs to be care.

I really like the subtitles when it writes: ''watching enemy''

Architecture for me is like meeting the fantasy and the reality, that connects the people wants and need, and also molded our society. Also im incoming architecture student so excited at the same time anxious🤞😦 hoping for the best.

Helpful as always, Master

Where have you been all this time? 😭 Finally I found an architect vlogger, subscribing ✨

“spend a lot of time doubting yourself” thats pretty accurate 😂

I already enrolled and I'm officiallyyy an Architect student.

Your videos are really inspiring and helpful!!

You make it sound so easy though. Thanks for this channel you help a lot of people.

Video Request "How to find an Architectural Proposals". Thanks😊👌 Btw nice vid arch.🤙

Everytime I watch your videos I keep asking myself if I can survive architecture cauz I'm planning to be an architect

Architecture is when being near a structure, in a structure or even seeing it in a book or a screen can catch your breath and your heart for a moment and the world is silent. Architecture is a feeling that can be shared though time and distance that provides us with opportunity to improve the functionality of our lives.

This was actually really helpful, I now know all the processes to become an architect

pls show us how u make an actual project

Not to break everyone's expectation but I am going to give a little "dark" insight regarding architecture practice here on PH. The 10% fee the AR gets from the project construction cost seems very promising and inspiring, but little did everyone know that the 10% is somehow not being practiced for most of our colleagues because "most" clients are seeing it to be very expensive. If you have closed a deal with a full 10% fee then you are very lucky but on most cases the client negotiates to lower the price down to 5% to 3% or worst case scenario 1%. (Yes! It happens.) 😔 The standard perception of us architects here on PH on the people's eyes are very low like many do not even know that architects's existed, instead they hire CE to do architectural works (no hate to our allied professions). So I hope that the future number of architects here on PH will lift up the standards of our profession in par with other countries. To those who are going to take up architecture course, I wish you luck! Pursue it if you really want it. One last advice when you take up architecture, be prepared to be broken physically and mentally. Bwahahahaha Just kidding! Hahaha. Good luck! ❤

just finished applying for college (architecture program) and I know it'll be a rough road ahead but nothing's gonna stop me! thanks for inspiring us aspiring architects!

Another important thing in architecture (in any field in general) is connection !!!!!!! Know your people ! Skills are important but so are your contacts. I'm raised in the construction field and so I'm blessed with a big connection with people in and out of the industry. My mother has always told me to make every person you interact with count as one day they will also have your backs. Trust me, the construction industry is full of amazing people willing to help each other grow !

That "step out of your comfort zone" 😂 even my prof said it to me and i dont even know what it is 😟

Architecture is killing me softly and im slowly dying happily. Weird HAHA

I wanna be an architect in the future and this answered many of my questions, thanks sir llyan

Hi, i am just 13 yrs old but im always watching your videos because i want to be a architect someday, all of your videos are keeping me inspired to work harder to reach my dream soon. Thank you❤

There is an overflow of architect graduates now. watch out

Hey pal! I felt bad for not being first today due to some reasons but I'll try my best nextweek! 1 year to go and I'm step closer to fulfilling my dreams as an architect😍

Gr.10 student palang ako pero enjoy na enjoy ako panoorin mga vlogs n'ya haahahshahhaahah if magiging successful man ko na architect sa future🤔Super thanks talaga

You makes me happy💗soon to be an architecture🔥thank you for inspiring me💪❤️

Architecture is for me the art of making the surroundings of people more beautiful and to make them enjoy life even more.

Architecture is the solution, client is the problem. Lol joke lang po hehe

I'm about to graduate shs and will take bs archi for this school year. You have became a big inspiration and motivator to me. Thank you for giving me hope 😀😀 will be sure to use your tutorial vids in the future as guide and reference. Godbless

Superrr thanks plz make videos everyday I’ll appreciate it

I can't speak a straight English language so please bear with me hehe. I always re-read my portfolio in English (when I was 10th grade of highschool and I'm taking STEM in shs this year). I always remembered my answer in "What I Am Studying For?" question kineme ng English teacher namin. I don't know why I write my answer like " I am studying because I want to be/ I decided to become an archi in the future to change a gray cabinet into a yellow cabinet" and I think, for me being an Architect or Architecture is not just like renovating a house, buildings.. but also like renovating or repairing a house that full of sadness into a colorful and lovely one like changing a person with a sad face into a happy one. Creating or contructing a building that can lift anyone's feeling when they see it. That's my philosophy kineme po haha. PS: You really inspired me to be one of the successful architect in the future. Thank you for being a BIG INSPIRATION to me💙 PSS: Bilang nangangarap, handa po akong dumausdos at mahirapan to get my dream. Kase I know na mas lalong masarap tamuhin ang success kung pinaghirapan :)

Architecture gives me a lot of doubts 😔 but it's my dream. Thank you for this video, it gave me a glimpse about the possibilities. Incoming freshmen here😫

I watched your vlog about architect, until now. Gusto ko talaga maging Architect, ang problema lang is yung gastos talaga and also natatakot na kapag mag prepresent hindi pa naman ako good in english speaking. Then iniisip ko palang ngayon parang give up na agad ako pero gusto ko talaga. Meron akong pangarap na gusto kong matupad. Kaya kahit natatakot man o mahihirapan pag dating ng panahon, iisipin ko nalang yung pangarap ko para samin ng family ko. And also, architect na talaga gusto ko. Paiba-iba kasi yung gusto kong course, nung una army, sunod doctor/nurse, then architect pero so on si architect ang lamang. So hanggang sa pinipili ko si architect, pagbubutihan ko lahat hanggang sa ginagawa ko na yung sarili kong bahay na malaki. Parang 1 year ago una kong nakita tong channel mo, then sa year na nag daan architect ang gusto ko. Then nakita ko channel mo, na inspire ako ng sobra na to the point iniisip ko na yung gastusin, bibilhin na gamit, papasukan na school in senior high to college to work place. Na inspire ako na maging Architect. Habang nagbabasa ng comment duto, natatakot ako kasi may nabasa ako about sa low income. So around 12am (2:39am na), nag usap-usap kami ng bff ko about working place sa ibang bansa kasi iniisip namin yung kikitain agad haha. But iniisip ko ngayon, ARCHITECT ba talaga? Ps, hihihi andami kong sabi nohh. Btw, Grade 9 student palang ako. Iniisip ko na to agad, na iistress ako kahit wala pa haha. Thank you, sir 💛

Architecture to me is stimulation of spaces. But I'm still kind off figuring my definition of it too. ❤

When I become a college student, I will watch some of your videos to motivate me hahah. And keep it up your funny jokes okay?.😅😊What do you think is the best school for architecture here in philippines?

Architecture to me is creativity, hardwork and dedication taking form 😅

Hello I'm 16years old and, I'm so very excited To be in college because of you...... You're such a big help to me to understand,such as many things about archi❤️

oh my god. I was legit having some second thoughts about architecture 'cos i feel like i'm stuck in a slump especially now that i'm working. Im having doubts if i took the right path cos i feel like this is not doing anything good for me. but when you said as 2:00 , damn. i legit teared up. huhu thank you, sir big brain!

Architecture is a dreamer.... Need to become a doctor when designing a hospital, need to became a chef when designing a restaurant............

Architecture is a tool that helps all the people to live a easier life :>

Architecture is that point where the imagination an creativity of a child meets reality.being constantly shaped and evolved by maths physics and ofcourse in the given situation technology. Thank you

Thankyou ar Llyan ♥️

Architecture is a willful act, a purposeful endevour.

For me, architecture is my way expressing imagination.

Sir llyaaan!! You really inspire me to be an architect, I think I know my path right now HAHAHAHAHAHHA ❤️❤️

Already Know the vid is super infrorming! Keep it up

Plss show some of your projects. I MEAN your originals😀

First year is going to be expensive Me: *Partiming intensifies*

I knew you were Filipino! Thanks for your videos. I am actually taking Architecture in PUP this June so I'll need all the information I can get. More power to you sir!

I am 16 years old, I am just a senior high school student. For me, my definition of architecture is, it is summation of art and structure. It is also the creator of ladder that makes us climb up and improve. In this quarantine I am starting falling In love in the field of design, and I ask myself, if I would be an architect what would I do? The first thing that popped up in my head is the word IMPROVEMENT. Trying and thinking the things that will make a big impact in the environment of today not just in my country, but all. The second is STABILISATION. Improvement and stabilisation is some how contradicting words, if I would be an architect I want to improve the things that we have and stabilise the nature. Architecture should build a lot of things without destroying something. Specially the things that is here before us. Improvement and stabilisation, that is what architecture means to me.

Lyan will reach 100k subs sooner

been watching a lot of vids about architecture, i want to know everything about it before i take it on college, i need to know if its worth it or nah, or will it make me a rich woman in the future. for me, i should not take something that i "just" love, i might choose something that will make my family have a better life. so im kinda nervous, really.

Hey Llyan i don't comment much but do enjoy watching videos on RU-vid. This one is my first ever comment on a RU-vid video ! Well, here is an exception because you've asked the most important question to the people connecting to architecture community. What is Architecture? To me philosophically "Architecture is a way of life, that evolves with your own experience."

Your content is so interesting

Actually, kuya I am really a shy person and I always got very nervous when I talked with other people or interact with them. So, I'm asking if is this a disadvantage for me who want to become an architect?

I'm a high school student ..... I love architecture but I'm not that much good at drawing !

Dope video thanks bruh!

Im really into architecture once i started watching your videos thank you for your inspiration to persue architecture currently practing drawing and playing the game sims3😂
