reflection
Through this assignment, I am really glad that I had the chance to learn more about the profession of Architect. For this project, we had the chance and fortunate enough to meet with Mr Michael Ching who were the Architect in his own company CH&I Architecture. He kindly explained to us about what is an architect is all about and even show us his company project which he has done and currently doing now .He did also show us what awards that he has took for his project.Besides that,he did also give us a lot of talk about his experience of being an architect.It was somehow not what i thought but i really apprecite the talk he gave us.We are encourage to be passion and always not to give up that easily in our journey to become a professional architect. In conclusion, it was an eye-opening experience as we got to explore and know more about the construction industry.
