Architectural design is drawing and crafting structures with acuteness and functionality in mind. It is the process of imagining a building's shape.

 In regular practice, the Architect acts as the Owner’s/ Client's/ Proponent’s Adviser and Representative. He translates the Owner's needs and requirements to spaces and forms in the best professional service manner.

The Architect’s work starts at the inception of the project when the Owner outlines his requirements to the Architect. The work covers the various aspects of the project, from analysis and study of the needs and requirements to the preparation of the necessary instruments of service, and finally to the supervision during project implementation. It ends only when the general contractor or builder turns over the completed project to the Owner.
