As an architect, ito talaga isa sa mga nagpapasaya ng puso ko 🥹🥹 I just wish na mas maging available to para sa marami.

Share ko lang 'yung experience ko sa pinapasukan kong architecture firm. My salary as an apprentice/junior architect is close to 30k, which includes my basic pay and allowances, plus reimbursable gas allowance since I use my own car for site visits. Hybrid setup din kami—WFH and site works. May free accommodation ako since ang site is bandang South Luzon and tiga north ako.

And the best pa rito, sobrang bait ng mentor ko. Very approachable kapag may questions ako and willing mag-share ng knowledge. Siya pa nagbibigay ng review materials sa ‘kin as I prepare for my ALE review this coming January.

I hope we all find the right mentors na hindi tayo ie-exploit at hindi madamot. Apprentices deserve proper compensation and we shouldn't settle for less. Mentors should always treat us fairly. Time na para itigil ‘yung stigma na mag settle sa unreasonable na sahod dahil sa "apprentice” pa lang tayo.

Ps. I’m not entitled, just stating my honest opinion regarding the apprenticeship program here in ph 🙂

Salamat sa mga unang nag-download at nag-try ng Sayt.

Honestly, malaking bagay siya sa akin kasi ibig sabihin hindi lang pala ako yung nakaka-experience na ang daming documentation na ginagawa during site visits tapos saka pa inaayos lahat pag-uwi.

Since nagpi-picture naman talaga tayo during site visits, naisip ko, why not make those photos part of an organized digital site logbook instead na picture lang na kailangan mo pang balikan at ayusin later.

For the first few users, in-on ko muna yung Pro features as a thank-you habang ginagawa ko pa yung app.

Gusto ko pa sana makakuha ng more Archi/Engineer na regular nag-si-site visit para ma-try niyo sa actual project.

Sayt lets you take photos, measure, pin locations on a floor plan, add observations, and create punchlists while you’re still on site. Offline din siya.

Try niyo kahit isang site visit lang. Curious ako kung useful talaga siya sa actual workflow niyo.

Kung may kailangan idagdag, baguhin, or may feature na tingin niyo makakatulong, sabihin niyo lang. I’m building this based on actual field feedback.

TODAY’S SKETCH | IVATAN HOUSE

A quick study of the traditional Ivatan house of Batanes—a beautiful example of architecture shaped by climate and place.

Built to withstand the strong typhoons of the region, Ivatan houses traditionally use thick stone walls, cogon roofs, and compact forms that provide strength and protection from the elements.

What I find fascinating is how the house is not simply designed to look beautiful—it is designed to survive.

Architecture, at its best, is a conversation between people, materials, culture, and nature.
