Why a Registered Architect?
Look for the RA after the name of an architect you consider for your project. Registered Architects maintain continuing education and subscribe to a code of ethics and professional conduct that assure clients, the public, and colleagues of their dedication to professional standards in practice.
Architects clarify and define your building needs.
Through a process called programming, Architects can thoroughly examine your specific requirements, your budget, and building site to help define the scope of what is to be built.
Architects solve problems creatively.
Architects are trained problem solvers. An Architect can design a space that meets your needs today, and that can be adapted for tomorrow. Architects look for ways to make your project cost effective and propose ways to get even more for your investment than you imagined possible.
Architects see the big picture.
Architects create total environments, both interior and exterior, that are functional and exciting places in which to work and live.
Architects manage your project.
Architects manage and coordinate key project elements, while you focus on your organization's activities.
Architects maximize your investment.
Architects are a wise investment of today's dollars for tomorrow's big savings. A building designed for maximum energy efficiency can reduce bills now and in the future. Efficient use of space can reduce the total square footage required and increase employee productivity. A well designed building can not only reduce first costs and increase long-term value, but also improve the users' enjoyment of the work and living environments.
