Why I made this guide
Architecture school is exciting, but it can also burn you out. I wrote this short guide with everything I wish someone had told me as a student, so you can do great work and still sleep.
No all-nighters, and why a rested brain designs better.
Plan backwards from your jury, with a simple table to fill in.
The day before your jury is for rest, with an evening checklist.
How to present calmly, even in a language that is not your own.
Find your crew, and what school doesn’t tell you about practice.
It’s free, 10 pages, as a PDF. If the download doesn’t work, email me at julie@openbook.archi and I’ll fix it.
