Ep.2 - Marks of architecture

You can spot them right away: they pause in front of a wall, a stretch of pavement, or tiny details most people overlook. They’re architecture students. I’m Mei, and I study architecture at Politecnico di Milano. There’s no perfect formula for figuring out whether architecture is the right path. But there are stories, attempts, and small signs along the way. Through projects, drawings, and the occasional improvised site visit. I’ll share my journey—from when I started to how I got here and above all, I’ll take you inside a question that never has a simple answer: what is architecture? Through anecdotes, overheard voices, and small confessions, I’ll show you that behind every project there’s far more than just a university assignment. There’s a story taking shape day by day, through mistakes, laughter, and a few shared moments of madness.
