What Does an Architect Do? - People Process Place Episode 2 People Process Place | Stories on Architecture & Community Development

    • Design

Why architecture? What do architects do every day? How do architects get their ideas? These are just a few of the questions people ask when they hear about architecture. The craft has a huge impact on our everyday lives, the built environment, the way things are designed, and the patterns all around us. The placement of windows, the context of why those windows are there, and how it will change and influence the work being done, are all part of the craft. But how does an architect do it? Today architect Lester Limón dives deep into the behind the scenes!
