Architecture !!!!










The comic is about the life of an architect by the name of Archibald and the things that cross his path.

Archibald runs an architecture office together with his colleague and friend, the engineer Gerald. They are partners for life. Despite their completely different personalities, they complement each other perfectly. While Archibald is a dreamer, the man with the big ideas, Gerald is the realist who keeps his feet firmly on the ground.

Archibald is an egocentric idealist with his very own views on architecture. His often vehement clashes with the various participants in the building process are the living proof of that. However, he gradually realizes that it is sometimes necessary to compromise when you want to see your projects substantiated.

He understands that architecture is more a quest than a standing fact. He pursues a future as an architect, but preferably in a limitless universe where he can do whatever he likes

This cartoon shows how Archibald thinks, feels and looks at the world and the people on it, focusing on the struggle with himself, his emotions and his burning need for recognition.

Every one of us follows his own path in order to learn the things of life. Architecture is Archibald’s path to human learning.
