So I started a new job today
That's right I'm now employed. Unfortunately its not doing architecture or any kind of designing. I feel like I've sold out for the love of money, Booo to me.
Anyway there's something about having a full time job that encourages me to keep designing and entering architectural competitions. So hopefully I'll be posting some more drawings and designs on a more regular basis.
At my last two jobs, both before Christmas, I was able to keep a little sketch book at my side and filled a couple of these up with drawings and musing. (Which I might scan in an throw up here for a glimpse into my mind). Therefore when I'm settled into this role I will, hopefully, be able to carry on this new tradition.
What an awful word; tradition. It seems so boring, so set in its ways. Maybe we need a new word to encompass all that tradition tries to whilst being something that people won't feel so stuffy using. Something that eloquently puts across our need to repeat a set of actions steeped in the history of our own cultures. A word that can be used to convey how we feel about the aesthetics of our past that would go hand in hand with more modern words like 'Modern'.
Moditional. OK that's terrible but its a start.
'Back to this new job' I hear you cry, 'We want to know more'. Well its for a property management company helping landlords manage their properties. I have to look at and source out maintenance issues with said properties. 'How moditional' you say.
That's right one day down and I've already gone more insane.
Maybe later I'll post up some quick images I've produced about trying to throw some colour into Bath.
