Architects/Architecture Firms

Alright, so this is one article that I didn't get a chance to write due to either forgetting what topic that I was about to discuss or I didn't really have the time. But now that I am here I am going to just talk about architecture firms or architecture as a whole due to the thought that it was something that I was going to do since studying a lot of AutoCAD which by the way is a tool that is used for most architecture jobs when it comes to drawing and design. Since they do keep making new versions of the program most designers will have to learn it again.

The AutoCAD program is a topic that I will discuss in a future date. In this post I am going to talk about architecture firms. Now architecture firms are businesses like law firms do provide a service to most customers but with a difference. They don't provide legal services although they do deal with some legal issue when it comes to building designs and codes that they have to abide by depending on the province and state they reside in. Architects have to deal with contracts too. So they will need that help from lawyers in that aspect.

Architects deal with other people in the construction industry such as construction builders, carpenters, plumbers and electricians and other tradespeople since without them their buildings wouldn't be built or turn into fruition. So in that aspect architecture firms have a team of architects, architecture technicians/drafts people and other designers that not only do the designs but they are also in charge of the day to day operations within the firms. So in that aspect, they do need customers/clients in order to make money.

Architecture firms do need money to not only just pay their employees but also to run their businesses since they do run on a cost basis when it comes to designing buildings because one mistake on their drawings or designs could cause them to lose time and money because they have to waste time redesigning their buildings which could cause them to lose money because they may have deadlines that they have to work with when it comes to designing buildings whether they're houses or work buildings.

So in closing, architecture firms and architects are an important part of the construction industry. The industry as a whole is another topic that I will talk about in a future article but for now architects and the firms is what I am talking about now since it has been in my head for quite sometime now due to being in the construction industry for a while and not thinking about the process of how construction works in this country and globally. Hopefully I have covered enough about architects. If not then let me know in the comments.
