What is Architecture Addiction?
We know how it is. There's all these beautiful places all over the world you'd like to go see. Money's tight. Your schedule's weird. You've got this little architecture addiction and no good way to relieve that itch to go see it for yourself. So we arrange field trips. That's what we do. We try to schedule them all throughout the year, and we try to do it on the cheap. And we include airfare, so there's one less thing you gotta worry about. We're architecture students, like you (or not like you if you're not an architecture student but are addicted to architecture just the same). Basically we get you where you need to be so that you can do what you gotta do. While we're off searching the world for the best opportunities for you and your addiction, we've started this blog to keep you up to speed on what's happening with Architecture Addiction...and what's happening in architecture. Learn more about us.
