Need work experience with an architect in London please...?

Question

Im looking for some work experience with an architect in the central or east London area. Its for 3 weeks at the end of feb to march. Could any one give me some work experience please?

Answer 1

You might be better off looking outside the london area.

Good luck though

Answer 2

3 weeks is a bit of a short period really.  Most architects expect students (I assume you're a student looking for work experience) to work over the summer.  I myself did 2 months last summer.  

All I can advise you to do is to go to the RIBA website (www.architecture.com), trawl through the database of architects' practices and write off to any that seem as though you'd enjoy working there.  

Be warned though- you will have to apply to many.  I applied to I think 25 over the summer and got only 7 replies.
