How to Tell if You're an Architect

groveraxle Did you see Paul Newman as the architect in "Towering Inferno?"

Did you laugh yourself silly?

hollywoodland Hilarious! Thanks so much.

Casey Martinez ...Do you have have a favorite style of eyeglasses?
Totally enjoyed it Jody!

Sisanda Maqubela I like it!!!!

olldbobbi Do you have a favorite hinge??? Brilliant!

junebar Loe it, Fabulous!! I only wish I was an Architect!

junebar I couldn't even be an interior designer; I became so hang up and my inability to draw, particularly 3D; I just lost the zeal for it so I gave up! not even an interior designer!!!

brtrademex Not very smart, just to have some fun is ok

xenasmom I love the punchline - "Congratulations". Hah!

COASTROAD Hearth & Patio - I can't name seven architects from Finland. Whew!

Laurie M I'm not an architect but I do have a favorite shade of white and a favorite hinge! I think an intervention may be needed. Hilarious!

Jea Makabenta actually my favorite font's Century Gothic, does that mean I'm no longer an architect?

Kathryn Peltier Design You make me laugh - I just subscribed.

ssmakal I don't know any architects that would be caught dead with a Sharpie in their hands.

LOCZIdesign hahah! this is perfect.

Nancy Vargas AIA I didnt answer yes to all of them, but, yes, I am an architect and so many of these are true. The list could also go on forever. Is every profession like this?

Cynthia Andersen Ford I must be an architect, the sprinkler head off center had me laughing out loud. thanks -we always need a good laugh in this profession

FrameSource That was pretty funny! Turns out we are not Architects!

junebar I honestly felt that someone would feel sorry for me and decide to to teach me the art of 3D drawing, but I guess I wasn't pitiful enough! all because I'm not an architec!!

Alex De | AIA Now I have to see “Lake House” to be an architect? Continuing education credits?

tudormomb Oh, my! That kept me laughing all the way through. How about decorator; stager; colorist, or something for the rest of us!

Margaret Eaton My personal favorite: Charles Bronson in “Death Wish”. Now there's someone who would never compromise on his design. I pity the clients.

Laurie Mischel I could not draw a floor plan to save my soul but I can read them and picture them finished better than anyone I know. I have a hinge, knob, pull obsession and love anything houses...Glad to be a realtor but wish I could have married an architect. My dream to build one day is still strong but it would be so hard to pin down which style to go with. I want the Nantucket feel with strong contemporary lines. Oooh!

astraea Another of these silly articles, like the "are you Creative" one! According to you, everyone is obsessed & obsessive about what they do for a living. I considered architecture & engineering, when I was still in H.S.; it was just a matter of being creative, not fixating on minutae. I didn't become an architect, because at the time you needed to be a pretty good artist as well; no computers for designing back in the 1970s.

Lizbeth Carulla arquitecta funny stuff like always... favourite shade of white.....brilliant!

Fine Art & Portraits by Laurel hee hee, you've done it again!

richardmorse Favorite colors: Black, grey, white, and clear.
...I'm only wearing black until they come up with something darker.

M Studio Interior Design Very funny, AND TRUE ;-)!

Carolyn Zone9alady That was too funny!

Savena Doychinov, CKD/Design Studio International Jody, as soon as I saw "Are You an Architect?" I knew it was you again! I'm not one, but I can answer "YES" to most of the questions. Do they all get the same number of points? It's funny
(and not so funny!) how rigid we can become - is it the case of nature or education?
Thanks again for making us laugh! I hope you never run out of ideas!

Lidia M. Luna At Forge Iron Designs Love it! Door Hardware is in my life every day! Oil Rubbed Bronze favorite color on hardware. Almost black.

qilsae i love the idea....did you stop and starring on architectural product?

Tai Rosario I'm studying interior design and my Sharpie is my best friend

Workman Design Is your car the only one parked at the construction site with a Dominoe's Pizza sign on the top of it?

joqueen at least an interior designer!

Bilguun Billy I'm not an architect. Glad to know this, thanks Houzz! Please keep me updated and let me know if you have something to waste my time. Funny.

_boo_ Ok, already. You wear black, favorite color is white, drink lot's of coffee... enough! How many times can you rehash the same stereotypes? Am I the only one that finds this completely self indulgent after 25 entries?

smittycdm I have a client who is a designer but trained to be an Architect. Hated being in a cubicle whatever time the juniors, you know, so she switched. CDA. Man, she loves loves her Sharpies! Bold, if only I could get her to put the dang caps on...

smittycdm CID i think. Work hard, play hard is our motto, still New Year's for CPAs.

Savena Doychinov, CKD/Design Studio International Happy New Year Jodi! All the best to you and your family. Time for new funny post (as only you can do it)? We all will be so grateful...

Southern Evergreen Architecture+Design wonderful over simplification, thank you.
