They usually dress better than bankers and lawyers, but they all have similar eye wear. It’s confounding. Whole groups of them outside smoking, all with those square frames. Also, it’s weird how many architects are complete assholes.
“It’s riddled with pragmatism”. Uh-huh.
As for sexiest, that’s bullshit. Everyone knows the sexiest profession is Blog Commenter.
Until the ladies find out how little they make. Then they’re like “see ya”.
I’ve ALWAYS said this. Architecture is the sexiest profession because it requires an applicable knowledge of both art and science. And what’s sexier than a synthetic thinker? A synthetic thinker who dresses well, wears chic glasses, and builds stuff!
I love this quote: “Mind you, you have to question the veracity of any list that includes drama teachers.”
Ha!
Librarians are sexier than architects.
I misread the headline as “sexist”
What a shocker…
Women prefer men that make a lot of money.
Men prefer women that are physically attractive.
Snore.
@8, That’s the problem. Architects don’t make a lot of money. It’s a myth. They make less than just about every other profession.
#6 is correct, and I personally know two examples. Maybe I just prefer larger frames with my glasses-wearing stereotypes?
@7, that would also be correct
totally off-topic: anyone know where in seattle this was taken? http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d27/Ar…
Architects are wankers.
It’s not Public Intellectual? Are you sure? Check again, OK?
As Dougsf says, @6 for the win.
Sexiest of all are librarians on the architecture floor of the big libraries, of course …
@9
But most people probably don’t know that. Women likely hear “architect” and think “rich.”
Actually, on a per-capita basis, law and medicine both pay pretty badly if looked at based on hours and cost of education …
At least architects can move when you get bored with a place, without a one year wait period just to change states.
i work at an architecture firm but not as an architect. believe me they are dull human beings
jessica, get back to work.
say it ain’t so, jerry!
is he still sporting his daily scarf?
I’m sorry – is there a famous architect named Jerry Garcia? The only JG I know is the dead guitar player. Does he have something to do with this story?
Just another “muh dik” post from Charles.
I always thought Statisticians were the sexiest. Damn, I am in the wrong field.
Yes, there is a sexy architect named Jerry Garcia in this town:

Obviously they have never met an architect. As as for being ‘synthetic thinkers’ – maybe the best are, but 90% don’t have a clue about engineering what they’ve imagined. Just cause you can build it out of cardboard doesn’t mean you can build in concrete and steel!
