There's also the fact that a good photographer brings a new perspective and is able to distill the essence of the space without the bias of any problems during construction/design/with clients.
If you're just wanting to learn how to shoot spaces, I say go for it, but start with natural light. A lot of spaces look amazing at a certain time of day, and it's up to you to watch/figure out when that is... Bringing in supplemental lighting is difficult to do well, and it's easy to get overwhelmed quickly.
And instead of a 6d, use a sony a7/r with an adapter for canon ts lenses, or stick with film. The dynamic range of either the sony or neg film will really help you out.
