Sherika Permana – Universitas Bina Nusantara

I began working 6 months ago, came in a nobody but a beginner. I was in my 6th semester and decided to take the path of working in a studio as my first working experience not only in architecture but in general. I definitely have learned a lot here, thanks to everybody who was so helpful and genuine towards us kids. This place breathed new perspective on so many things into my thought, not only on architecture but on creativity and management in the sense of design. I was so grateful, and still am, to be a part of RAW even for just a brief moment. I would especially thank Realrich Sjarief for his abundant sharing of knowledge. I’ve never met anyone so genuinely into educating people till I met him. He has that je ne sais quoi which makes him so distinctive not only as an architect but an educator slash boss slash parent or simply a human being. I would also thank everybody whom I worked with for the time and energy they have spared. These past 6 months have been the most significant time of 2016 by far and I couldn’t imagine another way more interesting to be spending those days, if it wasn’t together with these amazing people learning from the best.
