Some of my clients can’t understand why projects are taking so long to complete. Completion on our part usually means getting a permit. That term has taken on an entirely new meaning these days. The process of getting a permit can take longer than it takes to design and draw construction documents! Many of our projects have to go through the planning process before even applying for a building permit. That can mean at least taking two or three months of waiting for a meeting. At that point you’re not even guaranteed to be approved! Then when you are approved for the planning portion you can submit your building portion for approval. That can take from 6-10 weeks! So after spending 4-6 weeks of drawing the plans you’re looking at another 5-6 months to get approved! And there’s nothing you can do to speed that up!

If you’re wanting to get my opinion on anything to do with my business ( Planning, Architecture or Engineering) and I give it, don’t turn around and tell me how you disagree, especially when it’s ignorant and stupid! I’m an expert in these fields and should be respected and listened to! 😫

Another way to know if a project was designed by an architect is to find out what types of projects don’t require one by the city you live in. You might be surprised how few types of projects there are that don’t. Even fences and tree forts can require an architect! The regulations by cities have gotten so complicated that it takes a lot of experience with them to navigate through them. Believe me, it takes longer to get a successful permit review than it does to design and draw the building! Crazy 😝

I was in a store the other day (I think it was a hardware store) and started a conversation with a woman to suggest something to her about a problem she was having with her house. I told her I was an architect. She said “I didn’t know we needed those here”. I was totally floored that people think like that. But then I guess people think using an architect is a luxury, one that they probably can’t afford.

The truth of the matter is that the house you live in was probably designed by an architect! Maybe not your specific house but one like it as a master. Today most communities require an architect to seal the plans. What’s the difference between a building that’s designed by an architect and one by everyone else? A lot! I’ll talk about that in the next week.
