Architect GLC205b Ms. Di Paola DIFFERENT TYPES DIFFERENT TYPES OF ARCHITECTURE TECHNICAL TECHNICAL ARCHITECT The technical aspects of structural design are the focus of technical architects. They could, for instance, deal with a building's thermal efficacy. Before a facility is built, these architects oversee its details to make sure it abides with all the local safety regulations. PLANNING PLANNING ARCHITECT The planning of the design phase is often where these architects specialize. Planning architects give teams and businesses advice on how local restrictions and rules affect a structure's design. A planning architect will also request project permission from the local authority. DESIGN DESIGN ARCHITECT Design architects work on the layout of buildings. They will concentrate on developing a structure's original design, drawing out a model of the building in line with the client's requests, and choosing the project's materials.
