Description

Hello! This is Episode #210, and in it, I’m continuing on from the last episode, where we’re answering the question:
How do you know you don’t just need a draftsperson or building designer, but you should use an architect instead?
And when should you definitely use an architect vs other industry professionals? Or when you can use a draftsperson, or even go straight to a builder?
If you haven’t had the chance to listen to the previous episode, then stop now, and go back to listen to Part 1. You can then come back to this episode, and it’ll make more sense. It’ll be here waiting for you when you’re ready!

When I speak to homeowners about this question of who they should use for their project, I know many would like a formulaic response that makes it really simple to know which professional you should choose. 
And any time I see it asked in online forums as well, people will answer it like there’s a simple black and white process to choose. 
However, with the years I’ve been in this industry, I just know that because the process of building and renovating, even in the smaller and partial projects, is such a personal one. And I also know that people value things differently, have different priorities and values, and so it’s not as simple as saying “if you’re doing project ‘x’, then you should choose professional ‘y’”.
However, there is certainly a structure you can use to guide your decision-making. 
Let’s look at some other ways of determining whether to use an architect, building designer, or draftsperson on your project - or even just going straight to a builder.
And I’m going to dive right into the most common factor I see people often use to decide.
