ARCHITECTURE : THE SELF LEARNING METHODOLOGY

Students, parents, followers of architecture......

I am Avinash Chirania, or you can say ARCHITECT Avinash Chirania as I am known to some people these days. As I write this designation before my name with pride, I recall the day when I was just  ‘Avinash’, an average high school pass out with the aspiration of being an Engineer or a Doctor as most of  my fellow age students used to think during that  phase of life.

Now as an architect heading a design team at 4LINE ARCHITECTS and also working as an Associate Architect for number of reputed architecture firms in the town, gathering knowledge from all the learned persons be it our Teachers at GCA, the Senior Architects, friends and fellow mates who so ever came my way in this extraordinary journey of 5 years of architecture and thereafter, I take the opportunity to thank the person who introduced me to the field of architecture.

I would here mention that in architecture, knowledge flows everywhere, every person you meet in your way, everything that happens in your surroundings, and everything that is right and also everything that goes wrong has something or the other to teach you. It is solely upto the student to cultivate the power of observation and grab the knowledge which is flowing.

I AM STILL LEARNING...........

Observe people, observe activities, observe the discussions and debates, listen to your

teachers, if a person talks to you about 10 things, you can consider 9 things would appear irrelevant to you but the one good thing you will pick will help you throughout your career.

THIS IS TIME TESTED I DID AND I STILL DO………...

No books, no person, no college, no studies, no supernatural power can make you a good architect they can only show you the right path to follow. It is you who will make yourself. Your problems, your observation, your own way of thinking, your way of dealing with people, and your approach towards life brings you success. The sooner you know yourself  the nearer you get to success...

I TRY TO BE POSITIVE ........WISH YOU THE SAME...
