"Earn a few decent cents" - The many gains and losses in the architectural profession

Ho Chi Minh City General Publishing House has published the first memoir, Earning Some Decent Money, by architect Tran Phung Tien Phuong. The work gathers the author's concerns about the architectural profession in social life during his 25 years in the profession.

Earn a little decent money includes long and short stories expressing the personal views of architect Tran Phung Tien Phuong. Although not too popular, it is enough to make readers think.

The book gathers all the good and bad stories, gains and losses in the architectural profession. Most importantly, the author wishes for a decent environment… to have quality projects worthy of the architects’ intelligence and the investors’ money.

Earning a little bit of money is a way for both clients and architects to achieve what they all want, which is a decent society - where everyone lives decently, where kindness is respected and decent people are protected. At the same time, this is also a place where you will not have a place to live if you do not do decent work!

The work includes a number of articles, such as: Who would do that as a human being?; Noble profession; Architecture and quality of life; What is the use of having a lot of money?; We are also human beings "fighting with each other"; Certificate of decent practice; You get what you pay for; Creativity and criticism; Price and quality; Time is money; You don't have any "relationships"; When God "sprays pearls and jade"; Red silk covers the mirror; East and West and the differences...

Architects, contractors, and investors can find themselves somewhere in these stories. Architecture students can refer to the book as a preparation before embarking on the arduous journey of practice ahead.

Or those who love architecture and interior design can also see Earning some decent coins as interesting sharing from a person in the profession.

"Many people outside the profession still think that being an architect is a very rich profession, but in fact, while other professions can earn millions, this profession still has to collect coins.

Phuong takes the wording a step further by adding kindness. Earning coins while maintaining kindness in this budding market society is really difficult. Read Phuong to understand the difficulty of being an architect," Architect Ho Le Phuong shared.

Architect Tran Phung Tien Phuong graduated from Ho Chi Minh City University of Architecture in 1994. He is currently the founder and CEO of an architectural company.
