Choosing An Architect / Designer for your project

Homework

Before speaking with an Architect, it is better that you create a brief for the designer about what spaces are you planning, activities that you want to include and a broad cost for the project.

​

Building a list of potential Architects

You could create a list of qualified Architects in the region and call them for a brief discussion about your project and if that clicks you could plan to meet the shortlisted architects in person, show them the Site where you want the build your project.

​

Approach & Chemistry

You could ask several questions about the Firm's Design Philosophy, their approach to work, Team Strength, Availability to take on your work, etc. 

You should also notice the chemistry you're forming with the Architect, because you are going to spend a lot of time interacting with each other & meeting on several occasions, it should be a comfortable interaction working as a team.

​

Professional Fees

There is no benchmark on professional fees that Architects charge and it all depends on the deliverables that they are offering. You should ask for a formal proposal from the Architect with all the deliverables mentioned in the Scope of Works and this shall give you a clarity as well as form a good comparison between potential shortlisted candidates.

What type of Architectural Styles does an Architect offer ?

Specialization

Some Architects only offer a particular style or type of building design services such as Temple Design / Retail Design / Public Spaces/ Residential etc. This depends on the experience the designer had earlier in project designs.

​

Styles of Architecture

It all narrows down to the choice of client whether he is looking forward to the Art Deco Style matching Umaid Bhawan Palace in Jodhpur, Havelis of Jaisalmer or a purely Modern Design with Sleek Clean lines. These are all visual styles or elements which will designed with the spaces that are being planned.
