WHAT PROCESS CAN YOU EXPECT FROM AN ARCHITECT?
Aspects of an architect's work can be divided into three main roles: design, documentation and construction. After choosing your architect with several references, he will start with "concept" drawings and end with "construction" drawings and documents, sometimes he will even use a 3D computer for the design.
Also, remember that your architect will have to build according to codes and will have design limitations. Architects are not only involved in building aesthetics. As licensed professionals, they are responsible for public safety and oversee projects. However, even though they may not be able to realize your ideas exactly, they will assess the entire situation and help you solve the various problems you encounter.
With the chosen architect, your discussions should revolve around :
- What you expect from the multiple rooms
- New ideas following the various design
- The organization of the rooms
