What Can An Architect Do?

An architect specializes in planning, designing and supervising the construction of buildings. Architects have a great understanding of building and the materials required to make them. Many people are now opting for 'green' designs which use as many eco-friendly materials as possible. A good architect can orchestrate all the key people required for the building process.  Architects will take into account many factors with their designs such as safety and asthetics. Quantity Surveyors will read the designs from Architects to evaluate the amount of materials required for the job.
