It’s no secret that we live a good part of our lives out through our online social connects; facebook, twitter, tumblr, they all create an online persona, disconnected from our real world selves.  This leads to people spending more and more time online, even when out in public, with the possibility of real, physical interaction.  John’s project seeks to disturb this, by creating a space that forces people to interact in the real world.

We came across The ISSUE: Collective a student run blog out the UT – Austin School of Architecture, which had an amazing section where students talk about their internship experiences with some of the top design firms around the world.  From Herzog & de Meuron, Jean Nouvel, Olson Kundig Architects and lastly the one we decided to give you a peak of today of EMBT by Agustin Cepeda.  Their tales are something all young designers can relate to, even my own internship at THEVERMYMANY is coming to the end.  We urge you to follow the link and check out the rest of the interns experiences.
