At NewSchool of Architecture & Design , student voices play an important role in shaping the community. °Õ´Ç³Ü³¦³óé, the school’s student-led publication, provides a platform where students share their experiences, ideas, and perspectives on life as a design student.

In a recent article from , student writer and photographer Santiago Girault reflects on the intensity of studying architecture and design—long studio hours, demanding projects, and the constant pursuit of creative excellence. Through conversations with fellow students, the article highlights how taking time to step away from the studio and spend time outdoors can help students recharge, think more clearly, and approach their work with renewed creativity.

Students featured in the story share how activities like surfing, golf, and archery help them manage stress and maintain focus throughout their academic journey. Their reflections remind us that success in design education is not only about meeting deadlines, but also about caring for one’s well-being and maintaining balance.

The piece offers a thoughtful look at how NewSchool students support their own creativity and resilience—both inside and outside the studio.
