It's November 2010 and the profession of Architecture is at one of its all time lows. The current economical climate is not condusive to a need for new construction. Many buildings stand empty of any and all life. No one is going to expel energy and money to build perspective spaces when so much is currently available. The crux of this post is what happens to architects who have lost their positions and what this could mean for the future of our profession. I myself have been out of work since December 2009 and it has forced me to re-think my career choices. I am fairly confident that I am not alone. Many architects are examining their current education level and trying to figure out what other career they can tangent into. It is not easy.
Now let us look to the future when the economic structure of our country has improved and once again Architecture begins to thrive once more. Many of the once displaced Architects will no longer be available to satisfy the vacuum of work. Some will be gone through age attrition. Others will have migrated to careers that are less sensitive to economical change. To further starve the vacuum many students who would have chosen Architecture have gone towards more stable employment. Will the profession be truly healthy or will the work outsize the available human workforce?
