ARCHITECT
An architect is a person trained in the planning, design and oversight of the construction of buildings. Topractice
architecture means to offer or render services in connection with the design and construction of a building, or group of buildings
and the space within the site surrounding the buildings, that have as their principal purpose human occupancy or use
CONSULTANT
Due to the specialized knowledge and perspective that they have, many architects become professional consultants. They
frequently work for a consulting firm that specializes in a specific type of project, such as public works or building restoration.
Some architects start their own consulting firms and build a roster of engineers, project managers, and architects to complete
stalled projects.
BUSINESS OWNERMany construction firms are owned and operated by architects. They often start small, with a residential development or custom
homes. Over time, they expand the firm to build larger developments or take on larger-scale projects. The brand name home
building firms that are advertised on the television are most often led by an architect and named after them.
INSTRUCTOR
As an instructor, an architect can often find a position in higher education, teaching architecture design concepts to architecture
technician or drawing students. He or she can also find a role as a professor or lecturer at the university level, and
many architects write books on a specialty area of architecture and design.

FREE LANCER
Freelancing is an option if you are an architect pursuing a career that allows you to express your individuality. Though going
freelance will reveal new struggles, the benefits of being your own boss might far outweigh them.
A freelance architect is an architect that chooses to represent herself and is not tied to a firm. After years of education and
obtaining proper licensure, many architects do not necessarily want to have their names lost to the face of a larger firm. Freelance
is an option for trained architects who want to be their own boss of their talents and abilities
1. Know What to ExpectAs a licensed freelance architect, expect to work within a specialty, whether it be residential, commercial buildings or landscape
design. You can offer the same services as architects employed by larger companies, as well as lower-impact counsel. The projects
clients need freelance consultation for vary, from laying out a home garden to designing complex commercial structures.
2. Fulfil the Requirements
To become an architect, freelance or otherwise, you must be registered by your state's Architectural Registration board. To become
registered, you must demonstrate your education (a BA or MA in architecture), your experience (usually garnered through an intern
program) and your ability to pass your state's architectural exam.
3. Advantages
The advantages of being a freelance architect are many. Complete control over every aspect of your business is a very compelling
motivator. The downside of freelancing is that though you won't be encumbered by the weight and politics of a large firm, neither
will you have its support or recognizable name. However, you can manage your own hours and, as much as possible, your own
wages. You can incorporate your personal ethics and ideals into your work. Your name may quickly come to be associated with
environmentally-friendly designs or large-impact visuals.
You can run such a business from a home office, reducing the time spent away from your family.

LANDSCAPE ARCHITECT
A landscape architect is a person involved in the planning, design and sometimes direction of a landscape, garden, or distinct
space. The professional practice is known as landscape architecture.
The term "landscape designer" is sometimes used to refer to those who are not officially qualified or licensed as landscape
architects. Others individuals who practice landscape design, but have yet to attain professional licensure (if it is available under a
particular state or jurisdiction) refer to themselves as garden artisans, planting designers, environmental designers, or siteplanners. Landscape architecture was not commonly recognized in developed nations as a distinct profession until the early
twentieth century.
URBAN DESIGNER
Urban design concerns the arrangement, appearance and functionality of towns and cities, and in particular the shaping and uses
of urban public space. It has traditionally been regarded as a disciplinary subset ofurban planning, landscape architecture,
or architecture and in more recent times has been linked to emergent disciplines such as landscape urbanism. However, with its
increasing prominence in the activities of these disciplines, it is better conceptualised as a design practice that operates at theintersection of all three, and requires a good understanding of a range of others besides, such as real estate development,
urban economics, political economy and social theory.
INTERIOR DESIGNER
Interior design is a multifaced profession in which creative and technical solutions are applied within a structure to achieve a
built interior environment and home lifestyle enhancement.
The interior design process follows a systematic and coordinated methodology, including research, analysis, and integration of
knowledge into the creative process, whereby the needs and resources of the client are satisfied to produce an interior space thatfulfils the project goals
