Is Architecture Only for Creatives? In this thought-provoking talk, Ar. George Jacob shares from his rich experience as a practicing architect and educator, challenging the common belief that architecture is only for those born with artistic talent. He emphasizes that while creativity plays a role, architecture is equally about observation, logic, discipline, and a deep understanding of human needs. Through his personal journey, he encourages aspiring architects to see beyond the myth and realize that dedication, curiosity, and the ability to solve problems matter just as much as sketching skills.
