An Architect Does More than Build Houses

An architect plays a role in town and landscape design, and is a historian and a trend analyst rolled into one. If you want to study architecture, you should have an inquisitive mind and plenty of staying power, enjoy designing and have good spatial powers of imagination. Studies are based on professional practice i.e. planning, construction and renovation of buildings, settlements and towns. Other areas or architecture such as history, creative design or the latest computer methods are also covered.
