At the age of 16, as part of the school curriculum we were assigned work experience to further prepare us for working life later on. I arranged my own work experience placement at 'Condy and Lofthouse Architects'. I spent the next 5 days handling the design side, as part of my work experience i was taught an extensive amount of knowledge to help when using 'CAD' (Computer aided Design',  'Google SketchUp'  and a handy piece of rendering software called 'Kerkythea'. It was a very enjoyable experience, just wish I had all the final outcomes of the work i did there.
