I can completely understand and somewhat agree with what you are saying. The 80/20 rules applies to this profession. Top 20% of the entrenched professionals in this field have 80% of the work. And the remaining 80% architects have to struggle hard to get a small pie out of the remaining 20%.

In the long run, you have to become a contractor if you want to earn decent amount of money and have some peace of mind. That’s all there is to it…

Do not study architecture unless you are rich pain in the ass with similar friends who can give you work. Otherwise you will be their slave, their servant. They are egomaniacs, depressed and most likely addicted to drugs with no moral compass. They are sad sacks who will die never knowing their family much less themselves. They pay homage to the wind. Do not practice architecture, you will regret it. If you want a life and a family forget it. You will not be able to afford it, at least not in California. This is a profession that is in the process of not being one any longer. It will morph into an extension of construction. Save your talents and be anything but an architect. But if you ignore all this, I understand, you will only remember this at some point and realize someone once tried to steer you away.

Hello Sobby,
I don’t really think it is that easy to get the plans of a heritage structure. You will have to work out the plans.
In this case, Google earth could be of some help to you.

Try preparing a conceptual plan. Visit the monument and work out the plan in detail. I don’t think it will be that tough.

Cheers
