I never talked about architecture with my father, which I regret.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
My dad was not happy about my not becoming an architect like him.
I didn't know what architecture was except that I lived in a house. I don't even think that I knew the word for a long time. My dad funneled me into engineering because it was his background.
I'm a trained architect. Both my parents were architects.
I came to architecture from building. Because my father was a builder, everybody was - and is - a builder in my family.
Of course I know very little about architecture, and the older I get the less I know.
Architecture is not a profession for the faint-hearted, the weak-willed, or the short-lived.
The day I went to see my father to say I wanted to become an architect, he was a bit surprised, because for him being a builder is much more than being just an architect. He was very angry, and I never thought I could do something else.
My dad designed houses and was an architect for many years.
I never built houses, only apartments.
My father never talked about the sacrifices that the family made for me.
