Do you realise that the lives we live today have been heavily influenced by architects and designers who shaped the spaces we occupy and the cities we inhabit?

Today, architecture continues to be among the most crucial sectors of the global system. City planning and property development have reached a high level of sophistication. The world’s most advanced cities are identified by stunning structures that testify to the highly evolved capabilities of engineers and architects. It is also today one of the most exciting professions to be involved in.

Studying architecture can be a rewarding and challenging pursuit that opens doors to a diverse range of career opportunities. Architects play a crucial role in shaping the built environment, creating spaces that not only serve functional purposes but also inspire and enrich the lives of those who inhabit them. Whether designing residential homes, commercial buildings, or public spaces, architects have the power to positively impact communities and contribute to the overall quality of life.

One of the most significant trends in modern architecture is the emphasis on sustainability. With growing concerns about climate change and environmental degradation, architects today design buildings to be more energy-efficient, environmentally friendly, and have a minimal carbon footprint. Increasingly architects are learning from nature to imitate its ingenious ways to create sustainable structures. Even termites can teach us a few things as architects have learnt from these insects how to keep the interiors of buildings cool in hot climates without resorting to air-conditioning!
