Step into the world of professional architecture with an immersive session designed to show you what life is really like inside an architect’s practice. This event gives architectural technology students a first‑hand look at how projects evolve, how teams collaborate, and what responsibilities you can expect as a technologist in a modern studio.
The session begins with a presentation led by practicing professionals, offering insights into the types of projects you’re likely to work on—from early concept development to detailed technical design. You’ll gain a clear understanding of day‑to‑day responsibilities, the tools and workflows used in practice, and how architects and technologists work together to bring buildings to life.
Following the presentation, you’ll take part in an immersive Virtual Reality experience in The Vault, where you can explore real project environments at full scale. This hands‑on VR session gives you a unique perspective on spatial design, demonstrates the importance of construction detailing, and shows the impact of your future work in the built environment.
Whether you’re curious about practice life, preparing for your first industry role, or would like to see first hand the benefits of Virtual Reality in an architect's studio, this event offers a valuable, authentic glimpse into the profession.
Refreshments will be provided at the end, with the opportunity for networking and questions at the end.
