The most basic definition of an architect is a professional who is qualified to design and provide advice - both aesthetic and technical - on built objects in our public and private landscapes.

​

Architect that serve as trusted advisors, their role is holistic, blending diverse requirements and disciplines in a creative process, while serving the public interest and addressing health and safety matters.

​

Perhaps, it would be best to describe architects as conductors who orchestrate and take the lead in reconciling all the goals for a building or other structure.

​

Architects do this by providing solutions through the use of:

​

• Artistic imagination and creative vision to design spaces where their ideas and techniques-represented through form, light, textures, materials, and color's-combine to fulfill your aesthetic, spiritual, and cultural needs;

• Practical and technical knowledge to create spaces that are safe, efficient, sustainable, and meet economic needs; and

• Interpersonal skills, psychological understanding and ethical practice to craft spaces that fulfill the complex, and sometimes conflicting, needs of clients, users, and the community.
