WHO AM I:
I'm Dami, a licensed Architect living in Vancouver, BC. I make videos about architecture, career, and creativity.
WEBSITE - www.damilee.com
GET IN TOUCH:
If you’d like to talk, I’d love to hear from you! Commenting on a video or tweeting @damileearch will be the quickest way to get a response from me, but if your question is very long, feel free to email me at hello@damilee.com. I try my best to respond to the emails, but unfortunately, there just aren't enough hours in the day!
How do you incorporate creativity in your every day life?
Actually, I usually do something that I have been doing since I was a child, I open music and start remembering thing, and try to imagine myself doing things that are not one of my ability, then start thinking of it as an object or architecture thing.
At times i pick up my old habit/hobbies and try do them differently I don’t if that counts as creativity 😅
I go out of architecture and try to indirectly link it with architecture, it helps me think faster when design task is given at school
Reading fiction and painting + drawing
My art sketchbook for my class 🙃
I think that being creative is a challenge because it dwells in sub-conscious thought. It can't be forced. But it can be guided by asking "what if"? Great video. Thanks for sharing.
True. We can also keep creating situations where we're forced to be creative 😊
That's right so just get enough sleep and forget that part but concentrate on what you do have power over. Creativity absent a medium is absurd. So every medium is a language. Be conscious that what we're talking about exists like a language. So you're after more vocabulary so we're talking vocabulary acquisition. In most mediums like music composition these vocabulary elements like chromatically altered harmonies are quite compelling So in architecture the very idea of "tensegrity" or "geodesics" are highly fertile areas or the idea of limits which brings me to looking into other mediums/languages for inspiration.
8:04 "..and the marriage between ideas and persuasion is kind of what makes or breaks architecture"
I've been binge watching your content for hours now and I'm loving every second of it. I've had really great ideas with your help, I'm grateful for you and your channel.
Thank you!! 😊

As an artist, I'm creative every day, but the issue is investing energy into that creativity.
Energy and time. Yeah it's hard! Making it into a routine makes it a bit easier.
"as an artist"
Just watched this with my 8 year-old daughter who wants to be an architect and she was thoroughly entertained. Very useful info and fun too!
Sounds like awesome parenting! Cheers
"We saw it in a dream"
I love your videos and I've learnt a lot from you thank you 😌☁️✨
my pleasure!! thanks for watching 🙏😊
A HUUUUuuuggeee improvement with the editing. This channel deserves more subs.
I think about it like fishing, if you pull too hard the line will snap and you'll lose the fish, if you never real it in... Well you'll lose the fish and your line to reality. Using just the right restraint for the force pulling back leads to a glorious steamed whitefish dinner.... Now I'm hungry.
i honestly love your videos. i'm 16 and because of you, i want to reach my goal to become any sort of architect.
Dami, I understand you are an architect as your profession but I must say your video editing skills are very impressive! And your videos are insightful and helpful even for those who are not in the architecture-sphere. Much love & thanks, Queen ❤️ 🙏🏼
Thanks a lot!!! I did this with my editor - he deserves the praise! I think he had fun with this one 😊
I was just thinking this!!
At 1:15 she appears with herself and four others and I thought that short part was very creative video.
this is such a timely video, im giving a lecture about practicing creativity and incorporating it into your life this week! awesome resouce
I just loved the way you explained it to us very easily!!
and the editing is too good!! 💙
Thank you!!!
Loved it ❤️ Someone's making their way to becoming one of my fav youtubers 👏
omgggg thank you 🙏🙏🙏
I am dyslexic and had a very hard time learning to read as a child so I taught myself to draw and from expressing myself on paper my my imagination grew and I began to think of ways to incorporate my imagination into all parts of my life.
I’ve been checking out your Discovering Architecture playlist and really enjoying your content. I’m no architect but appreciating your openness to new or even old ways we can live more experienced and fulfilling lives by living differently and what seem to me more convenient lives through an architectural coaxing of our society. I also love the sci-fi, historical or pop-culture critiques of the architecture within these works and what they practically get wrong or right in their imaginings.
Great channel 😃
You're very creative, I enjoyed watching this video. As an astronomer, I appreciate you adding the information about Newton and Halley. As a person, I really enjoyed the "explosive results." I am looking forward to watching more of your videos, especially the science fiction oriented ones. Keep up the hard work!
I'll definitely salute you on 100k on this channel. Great content!
how do I incorporate creativity? for me it boils down to why I desire to be alive at all. at a certain milestone in my life, I saw two distinct approaches to life purpose: the fighter archetype, and the lover. I saw people get fired up about taking a stand for something, fighting injustice, fighting standards through competition, hustling, pushing, asserting, and so on. these behaviours didn’t fire me up, and at length I realized I had to drop trying to be what I thought a person was supposed to be. I found that my nature is not that of a fighter, but a lover-an artist. whereas conflict vitalizes some, it only drains me; but harmony & serenity form the bedrock of those inspired acts & insights that I call creativity. I realized that I don’t want to be alive unless I’m expressing my true nature. so creativity, for me, is life-and-death. so with this preamble, now to answer the question as to how I incorporate creativity, I’d say: I found that my true nature was ‘creativity incorporated’-in other words, the universe incarnated (incorporated) this creature, myself, whose primeval nature is to create. and to surrender to the courage to live my true nature, ...that’s all I think about.
Girl yes. I'm an architect as well. This inspired me to make my video to share thoughts with other creatives
I love the topics and the approach of your channel. I’m trying to relearn what it means to be creative and apply it to my career and this is really insightful.
That's great! Keep things fresh 😊
The thumbnails on this channel are always epic
I'd double or even triple-like this video if I could...
It's a so useful, inspirant and creative video. I'm a student In architecture(1st year). This video gave me more savor to study architecture, this creative job, or better, this creative lifestyle🙏
That's so awesome!!
Well Demi, you are a master (or should it be Mistress) of the RUclips Algorithm. You can talk about anything from donuts to Space travel (FTL). You dont need a subject, just be in front of a camera and talk...I would be glued to the screen and anticipate your next video...FANTASTIC presence and presentation every time..
*inspirational music building up*
"and lastly let your mind fly high- LIKE A KAITTTT!"
😂😂😂
When that dude gets that Coca-Cola explosion in his face 😂 5.09
😂
omg i already love the vibe of this video!!!!!
I'm genuinely enjoying this even towards the end I see a random clip from sourcefed of Steve and Joe. Great stuff
I am grateful to be able to use my creativity in my job. It makes it less like work. Great video, awesome channel. More like this one for sure please 🙂
so informative yet entertaining love the video style and the editing is fire 💛
I just started watching Dami's videos recently and I love how she is such an intelligent, composed speaker. Then every now and then that inner crackhead energy will shine through 😂❤
Being 'creative' is simply a matter of learning to relax the mind. Bringing the conscious mind into equal relaxation with the subconscious mind...aka 'daydream' mode. When you come back, write it all down in short statements...in a journal. As time goes on, pay a visit to your journal of ideas. You'll be surprised how much we forget. Success is not part of this thought process. If success is your motivation, you're in the wrong frame of mind.
The difference between the intellectual and the genius is that the intellectual rarely questions the university while the the genius never stops questioning the universe.
Great, please keep it up, every time I see one of your videos I keep taking notes and understanding a lot of things.
thank you 😁 I'll be doing one of these "creative" type videos once a month.
@@DamiLeeArchI will be waiting for it. ^_^
Thanks for academic thinking 🎉😊
I love seeing your emotions as you explain this stuff and have fun doing it! That is what Tom Cruise does, everything with a smile! Great topic.
The head of Ford Motors said whether you think you can do something or not, either way, you are right! Take a look at some old 4 cylinder tractors with, so amazing, everything right there where you can see it!
Creativity comes to you. You have to block it with distractions etc, so content creators are often alone to avoid blocking thoughts (the auras of other people for example).
When you are in public, you expect contrast etc to process later. The patent office procedures play a role, and they are not cheap.
Never say anything is hard to do, you will intentionally block your thoughts.
As I understand, watching this video and the one(7 tips in creative process), being creative means to abble to mix old ideas we have, freely of critiques, in a new way than they are🙏thanks
Very true.
I agree. Ur other videos are way more interesting than ur laptop review.
I was looking for Mac reviews cos i was planning on getting one. Its the reason i found ur channel. You got a new subscriber. 😄
amazing editing! pretty apt to show off your skills on a video topic about creativity
It's not so hard to be creative. To mashup and brew ideas together to make new stuff is easy. The hard part is to produce stuff that is actually not evil, but thoroughly good and useful. Since we deal with the subconscious expression, undealt emotional issues can taint the quality of our work. As an architect we have a responsibility towards other to produce good stuff. A tormented artist can express garbage, if people like it, it's fine. But here, a thorough self-search and healing is required to create beautiful things.
The creative formula is my main take from the video #thankyou @Dami ❤️
Secrets to being highly creative and very happy:
1. Be brilliant - expand the depth and breadth and height of your genius in a multitude of ways
2. Pursue dozens of professional and artistic paths simultaneously - for decades
3. Use your brilliance to get the best nutrition for your brain and body
4. Give yourself the time to be brilliant and creative - for me, this meant relinquishing every "comfort" - except "makeup" and nice clothes. Since I wasn't flushing money down the toilet on trinkets and baubles, I had way more time than most people to develop skills and talents, more time for doing research, etc.
5. Do not waste time on drugs, booze, smoking, coffee, soda pop, junk food, toxic people, etc.
6. Focus your heart and mind on creating genius ways to improve the quality of life for those who want to live the best life possible.
fly high as a kite is my new life motto-
hahah 😂
@@DamiLeeArch Im now 12yrs
I want to be an architecture in future
You helped me to know about architecture
Keep it up
Looking forward to it!
Distraction is the enemy of creativity, boredom is where creativity is born, nurtured and released. Boredom is the best gift
Another fantastic video Dami!! With interesting anecdotes and engaging content. Thank you for the creativity, intelligence, and productivity that you put in to make this video! :)
Thanks Joanna! Glad you enjoyed it 😊
Thank you for the food for thought your work provides!!
I just graduated from highschool today and I want to say that I absolutely love your channel ! Its Really helping me settle on architechture even though people are negative or discouraging about the career
Congrats! Thanks for the support :)
Trust me as an architecture student in community college it has it’s ups and downs. I would say just be prepared to make some sacrifices in social life with friends and family because in architecture your work takes time. Also don’t be discouraged if you feel your work is never finished in the eyes of others including yourself and that’s okay because your think of ways to improve it. Just make sure to time management and most importantly breaks from your work other wise it will drive you insane.
00:14 "the Sistine Chapel..." Wow and guau. Is that the epitome of creativity? Thank you so much for the lesson. Now I can see quite clearly why mediocrity is the main component of the world's diet.
I smashed the like button for the algorithm.
a really good book on this is "Deviate" by Beau Lotto. It basically says we have to first uncover our existing assumptions about the subject, and ask the right question to see in a different light
Wonderful perspective ... congrats !
Greatly informative and I am happy to have come across your channel. :)
You know what, I came for the Mac review, I subscribed because of this 😍😍😍🤩🤩
Great video, very entertaining to listen to and watch. Thank you
I love your channel ❤️ keep up the good work !
Thanks ❤
thinking about what makes creativity it came apparent to me, new-found beauty will be seen only on the second look. (retrospect).
total freedom to create is more difficult than within boundaries. I used to paint whit a simple goal, make it beautiful.
I found out it is much more problematic to come up whit something than with limitations.
This account is gonna be BIG one day, I can see it
Your channel is growing Ms. Dami 😍😍😍
Nice video! And nice hair. I'm so happy you find time to share these valuable experiences and information.
Thank you for this enlightening video, very nice presentation Madam Architect. But in my case creativity is more of an accident or driven by exterior pressure like what in my past design challenge. In one of my music instruments store project the mall architect pushes me to make a design that would make him say wow, and It took me some time in solving that until I came out to the idea on what the store name means - that lead me to the generation of my design.

If there was a "Love" button here or anything higher than "Like", will surely click it. Really love your videos. :)
awwww thank you!!! 💛
Creativity comes with being able to be vulnerable. I worked with women in rehab and they couldn't even paint without having a breakdown because it wasn't perfect.
Loved it. Really great video 👌😊
SUPER!!! Thank you very much ❤️!!!
I REALLY REALLY love you so much thank u a lot.😭❤❤
That is a good question. Something I have been asking too. Over time my creativity has been changing in how I am being allowed to express it. Is that only because I wear glasses in an age when so many more people don't thanks to surgery for strabismus, contact lenses and things like Gimble Eye Clinic offering Lasix eye surgery so people don't have to wear them anymore? I don't know because as time goes by more and more I like writing and gardening when expressing my creativity. Instead of becoming more creative in the other arts. And so maybe I should set aside time in the morning only for all communication tasks limiting it to communicating with people I know well and writing fiction and poetry. Instead of spending too much time communicating with only acquaintances and other people on soical media too.
@DamiLee Do you do your own video editing and production? It's fantastic. Love the content, too. Nicely done!
Creativity isn't my problem it's everydayness regular stuff that's hard. All creativity requires is: A) a medium with which you're obsessed, B) an insightful question regarding said medium. So an insightful question might start out quite innocently like why does this composition sound so modern yet remain accessible. You'll know you're on the right track if the answers you're digging up are structural or architectural in nature. You'll know you're on the right track if the answers you dig up lead to more questions. What I'm talking about is vocabulary acquisition. If you're to be truly creative you must learn how to become an expanding universe. But all that means is living in the question as a basic principle. Creating a compelling body of work requires this for me at least. Oh one last thing. PRISON BREAK! So one must be ruthless and uncompromising to be an ever expanding universe. I simply mean that eventually you'll create formulas that work but that's a prison actually you've got to break out of. Formulas = No edge in order to develop creatively you've got to learn how to become an effective escape artist but without losing the hard won benefit of your last stage. It's like T.S. Elliott said " Because one has only learnt to get the better of words for the thing one no longer has to say or the way in which one is no longer disposed to say it. And so each venture is a new beginning a raid on the inarticulate."
I enjoyed watching this video because of its depth and meaning which to be honest you don't always get to see here in RUclips. I just started my own RUclips channel with a lot of ideas in mind. Right now though, I just managed to upload an unboxing experience because sometimes, you just have to do something while waiting for that a-ha moment. You know, I'm trying to cure my analysis paralysis.
I stumbled on your channel from your "great resignation" video. I'm really enjoying your content and delivery. I've subscribed; keep up the good work.
Update: YMMV
i love it i love it that bit of advice I gave about ilistarations and visual representations you have adapted it beautifully this one was more engaging and even though it has those very complex terms and explanations I was still engaged I love it you are doing so well not like you were not before I said anything your brilliant and its improving I'm becoming a big fan now
love the content, keep it up!!!
Thanks a lot 🙏
Love this video! Now I'm gonna let my mind fly high like a kkiiiiitttteee!! haha!
Your videos are always amazing
Thank you 😊
The editing of this video is very creative! Thank you for every piece of information Dami.. I learned a lot today.. -Luke
I have no idea what are you saying, but I just can't stop watching
can you please explain building bridges and dams like how do they move the waters
'Create' does not mean 'create smth unique'.
If you havent heard of the wheel, and you come up with that shape on your own, you have been successfully creative.
Congrats.
Well if you want to enable some creativity, it is good to see art from the past or something from the past and create something similar but different to it. Usually that helps with creativity.
I love this channel!
I like the idea that creativity is not a solidarity thing. There is this idea of the lonely, tortured artist. I like the idea that creativity is collaborative.
Super fun & informative your Excellency
This is really awesome. Really.
Another fabulous presentation!
Great content _ thank you!
is all the backgrounds in your videos real? im just curious cause they feel unrealistically gorgeous :)
yesss the usual background is real but I just purchased a green screen, which is how I'm changing the background throughout the video 😁
I've seen animals be highly creative too, some spiders or birds with their unique homes and traps.
I just found your channel, cause RUclips out of all socials decided to promote you channel!!! And I’m happy the platform introduced me to you rather than a creator.. I decided to give you a chance and i watched three videos!!! No regrets!!! RUclips chose well to promote you!! 🎉.. new sub my friend!! 🙌 I’ll be following you from now!!! I’m excited to see what else you put out!!! 🥳
Great video! 😌
I started some game design story sums but I only get paid after I have finished the creative artwork, the game mechanics and programming which allot is automatic but takes long to get anything substantial done. I wish it was possible to finance upfront for arranging staff and offices and presentations you know.
FlY HIGH LIKE A kITE! 10:38
Fly HIGH as A KItE 11:41
..........OMG, that was unexpected ! XD
It requires the application of the elements in the surrounding... It's more of an abstraction technique at randomness. That's what I presume.... Rest you clear me..😅😅
It's harder to be creative from the get go, while at the same time functioning in society. Shout out to all my fellow poor mental health sisters and brothers!
lol that kite moment caught me hella of guard
Love this vid
Dami, Have you plan or built a tiny house, backyard office? Please share. Thank you.
for me i just never broe the ceiling of having enough money to be creative and have an outlet for my ideas so they just rattle away in my head and eventually just get forgotten i guess.
GREAT VIDEO!
Thanks!
interesting... cool video!
