Assignment 2 was the first group assignment over the course of the 3-year design curriculum that had us designing together as a team. I was incredibly lucky to work with someone whose design goals were quite similar to mine, with a similar design workflow and ideas. Working with another person on a design was an experience that was very enjoyable and insightful because combining ideas and sharing the workload significantly reduced the amount of stress that comes with designing and also made time management easier since I was responsible for another person's work as well as mine. It was also particularly helpful in providing a slight preview of what it is like to work with a team of people in the actual industry as architects, giving us the opportunity to learn collaborative skills and to understand where to compromise and where to stick to our instincts.
