Been busy finishing up Germany, Flying back and barely missing London Heathrow Airport closing down by a matter of days, Christmas, my 22nd Birthday and now I am back at Norwich University.
What can I say? It feels weird being back in the run of things, a lot faster moving.
I've been focusing in on a few firms that I can travel to and meet with to hopefully get a job/internship for the summer. Some of the firms I have been looking at are: http://www.kawiaka.com/ - really good green design firm, ALL about renewable energy and sustainable design, http://www.gbarchitecture.com/ - also good design firm that has amazing designs and uses local materials, not any 2 buildings look the same, their style changes to the platform that the program requires, and http://www.birdseyebuilding.com/ - which is also a firm that uses local materials and their buildings form to the program. Some others I am also trying to apply to are http://www.blackriverdesign.com/ http://csmitharchitect.com/ and http://www.fffinc.com/
Let me know what you think of them....
I still feel in between somewhat, the transition from Berlin to Norwich still hasn't completed itself yet. This leaves me feeling almost out of place, but I'm hoping as more weeks go by that will fade.
If my job that Ive had for almost three years (working for Norwich Architecture Department) doesn't pan out because the Architecture department doesn't have the money, then I'll have to spread my wings out to lower forms of job haha. I wouldn't mind working at a store like Grand Union or some sort of hardware store as long as I was a cashier. I don't know and only time will tell. I would love to be designing posters again and another professor has me working on inventorying the local architecture of the area - i.e. getting paid to travel around VT.
I'll try to keep you updated on projects I'm doing and even try to get some photos up here!
