亲朋好友们,老同学新同学毕业的同学们,在这个普天同庆的日子,新的学期要开始了...首先,我们欢迎一下即将进入建筑系朋友们!这里小编为大家找来了英国著名杂志Architectural Review上提供的,开学前的11件小事)。小编在个人经验之后附上了原文,供大家阅读,希望大家熬夜愉快


1

喝茶,别喝咖啡


熬夜首选喝茶。虽然小编有很多朋友使用过咖啡、红牛、东鹏特饮等等各种各样的熬夜神器,但是从小编和小编朋友们的长期实践得出结论,只有茶叶对身体损伤小一些。另外熬夜建议多吃水果少吃油炸辛辣食物。年轻的时候不知道身体保护的重要,大一些了看到各个建筑师、规划师为了修复身体往医院跑才觉得当初何必。


Drink tea not coffee. Coffee is great for a sudden burst of energy propping you up during late nights on CAD but beware! The caffeine in coffee gets into your blood quickly giving you an initial rush that, if sustained, will cause your body to burn out. A strong mug of tea has a similar amount of caffeine but it’s released more gradually keeping you focused but calm for longer. Tea is also an antioxidant, relieves tension and is less of a faff to make.

多画,多用手画



这个建议小编觉得不能简单看待。手绘显然是广大设计师朋友们最重要的搞定思路的工具。无论什么想法,都不能只是口头说说。画下来,多画一些才有的对比。但是我们也不能被手绘的假象束缚住。很多时候,美好的手绘只是屏蔽了设计的无力。综合运用各种手段,把脑中模糊的设计方向变成人们心向往之的建筑空间和城市空间,才是我们应有的能力。


Draw lots and draw by hand. Drawing isn’t just a way of communicating with others it’s a way of thinking. From Le Corbusier’s messy sketches to Zaha Hadid’s vast paintings, drawing is essential to the practice, culture and progress of architecture.

用最锋利的刀,做最6的模型


模型作为各种类型的空间设计中必不可少的工具,这个观念已经深入大家心中。这里出于小编的个人经验和我国国情,tajima系列刀具真是实战利器。它真是切卡纸、PVC、木板都不在话下,而且买了一套刀片之后替换使用十分方便。不过小编建议大家,废刀片请用胶带、碎纸板等包好丢进垃圾桶,或统一收集统一丢弃,避免产生二次伤害。


When making models use a sharp scalpel. Scalpel blades are not cheap when bought from craft shops and blunt quickly but don’t be tempted to cut your costs by using dull blades. If you slip and cut yourself a blunt blade will give you a messy and painful wound that takes ages to heal. However, if you cut yourself with a fresh blade the wound will be cleaner, will heal faster and if serious will be easier for a medic to dress. You can save money buying scalpel blades online in bulk.

presentation是门学问


Architecural Review的小编给出了直白的建议,但我还是要说,展示方案真的是门值得仔细研究的学问。这一点上大家各有偏好,有的朋友喜欢研究苹果发布会、罗永浩演讲和雷军特卖会,有的朋友喜欢BIG酷炫吊炸天,还有些朋友喜欢规规矩矩的方案讲解。总之大家在给政府汇报前,收拾收拾自己,准备好稿子,认真彩排,都是必须的。日本人无论学生汇报还是建筑师竞标,presentation一律西装革履,效果大有不同。


Pin-up straight. Sounds like a no brainer but it is amazing how many first year pin-ups lead to hastily taping drawings to walls wonkily. Even a rough sketch on torn butter paper deserves better than that. Invest in a huge box of pins and line up your drawings with each other as well as the wall.




5


导师是无价之宝


新同学们,不要因为studio上大家都不讲话你就不讲话了,我们亲爱的老师虽然嘴狠,但是比你搓的见得多了。所以放轻松,把你的思路理清楚之后,好好跟老师交流,即使是simple到naive的,也不过是个日常对话而已。主动寻求更有经验的人的建议,对于天才来说也是大有裨益的。


Your tutors are an invaluable source of wisdom and ideas – use them lots. Don’t just wait for your weekly tutorial to roll around; actively seek out the advice, opinions and critique of your school’s faculty. Knock on their doors, email them, chase them through hallways, lie in wait near their office. Do whatever it takes.”



6


但是导师仅仅就是个宝



听完建议之后,你就了解经验告诉了我们什么:容忍范围。容忍范围之内是大家习惯的,而之外的,不是神作就是废墟。我个人的看法是,无论我们有多么不能接受那个容忍范围,先去理解它都是必要的。在追求真理的道路上,大家平等。在理解生活的道路上,尊重前辈。


Your tutors’ knowledge only goes so far. Intelligence, experience and damning criticisms they may have, a monopoly on the truth they do not. Sometimes the best tutor is the one who tells you to design the blue house so you become even more determined to design the red one. Listen carefully and understand their point of view but take what your tutors say with a pinch of salt.



7


放松点,少年



就像每一个曾经经历过江湖的人告诉初出茅庐的剑客,放松点,少年。我们都曾经历过一周不眠不休的奋斗,这也曾经给我们留下共同战斗的美好记忆,甚至曾经带给大家美丽的爱情。可是事实上,较早的时间规划完全可以避免这一切(当然是不是要避免爱情,那就当小编没说吧)。即使不能避免的在deadline前熬夜,适时的休息和规律的作息也是非常重要的。你们会知道不戴眼镜对于找到女朋友是多么重要的。


Power nap with caution. By the end of your time at architecture school your friends will have experimented with every sleeping cycle under the sun. Some will swear that 20 minutes sleep is more refreshing than 40. Others will switch to sleeping in four-hour bursts alone. You’ll see students making beds beneath their desks in studio or going 80 hours without sleep. There may well be times when you have to work late but the truth is that you’re never going to produce great work when knackered – far better to stay focused and productive during normal working hours than to let your course steal your sleep and productivity. Keep a regular daily timetable. Give yourself firm finishing times in the evening and stick to them.

要翻好杂志



阅读建筑杂志显然是个双刃剑。在网络愈发发达的情况下,纸质杂志都有点成为陈旧的东西了。但是,然而,可是,建筑是一项发自数千年前的古老行业。即使对于纸质媒体这种传媒方式来说,建筑都过于古老。图片会抹杀一切体验。而网络会抹杀一切图片。因此,小编从走访各个国际知名事务所的经历来看,强烈推荐以下杂志:el croquis, A+U, JA, Cassabella,以及Architectural Review哈哈。


Subscribe to a journal. Regularly reading an architecture magazine is an invaluable source of inspiration. A good journal should challenge you to think deeply about architecture and its relationship to the wider world but should also be a thoroughly good read and beautifully designed. From a tutor’s point of view the difference between students who are regularly reading articles or short essays in architectural journals and those who are not is dramatic. Luckily many architecture journals have great student deals on at the moment if you can find them.

好分数 ≠ 好学生 好作品集 ≠ 好前途



没错,好成绩给了大家在学校更有自信的理由。但是好作品集对于工作和留学更有帮助。不过对于建筑师这个行当来说,谁能发展的好,是个无解的谜题。我们国家的学生很容易上来就被大师梦冲昏了头脑。但是能够努力去做一名不辱使命的负责人的建筑工程负责人,对得起投资人、用户和公众群体,已经堪称伟大的职业人了。没错,重要的是职业精神


University grading systems are odd and architecture marking is brutal. Students who’ve been at the top of their class all their lives arrive at architecture school and find themselves struggling to get middle-of-the-road marks. Take heart. Your final grade is far less important than the skills and portfolio you’ll build on your way to it. The line up of internationally acclaimed architects is littered with designers who did badly at architecture school, dropped out or didn’t study architecture at all.



10


吃好喝好



这是真理。当然我不太认同原文说买的比做的好吃,这首先是关乎有没有钱顿顿出去吃好的,其次是我对自己的手艺还略有信心。不过这一点是对的:建筑师需要去体验好的生活,然后再带来好的生活。我想起本科时期我的朋友在答辩时带着哭腔跟老师说,我都没有住过五星级酒店,我怎么知道五星级酒店应该做成什么样...T T...


Eat delicious food. With so many deadlines it can be tempting to buy ready meals and takeaways rather than waste time cooking. This is a false economy. A good diet gives you more energy through the day, keeps you healthy and prepares you for a life of wearing slinky black turtlenecks. If you’re not the next Bompas and Parr already learn to cook some simple meals in large quantities that will keep for a few days – soups, stews, pastas and pastries.



11


出发吧不要问路在哪



旅行是每个建筑师、规划师、景观师、室内设计师必须的功课。这大概也是为何现在主题游这么多的原因吧。其实我还是推荐自己去看看的,毕竟设定好的路线上,看到的都是一样的风景。家乡和远方永远是我们最向往的地方,这一点无论对诗人还是政客都是一样的。


Explore. Travel often with an open mind. Understand cultures and traditions different to your own. That doesn’t necessarily mean jet setting around the world or hitchhiking to Morocco. Wherever you are based there will be a myriad of unfamiliar communities and landscapes within easy reach. Get to know the country you are studying in better – even if you grew up there.




结语

好啦,这篇新人篇就到这里啦。无论是即将开始新阶段的老同学,还是建筑、规划新人,小编还是那句话,多一度热爱,少一些茫然和彷徨,看清自己的内心,下一步才会走得更好,各位加油!
