Q: What are the roles of an architect in a certain project?
A: An architect is like a conductor in an orchestra. An architect needs to
know about all the profession and what they do in the construction
industry. So that he or she can give direction to staffs and other teams. An
architect is involved in all the stages of the construction. From start until
the end. The architect needs to go to the site to check on the progress and
also make sure that nothing is wrong.
Q: What responsibilities does an architect have?
A: The architect has a lot of responsibilities. As an architect, you will need
to design the building, think about the building's style, safety and
sustainability. Architect also has to take note about the taste and needs of
the client.
Q: What kind of qualities should an architect have?
A: An architect has a very big responsibility in construction industry. So,
the first thing is that being an architect, you need to have a sense of
responsibility to all projects/work. An architect should have perseverance
as you need to do sketching and drawings again and again if the sketching
got rejected. An architect also should have a sense of timing. He/She has to
know how to manage his/her time and don't procrastinate.
Q: What did you do as a junior architect?
A: I mostly did odd jobs in the office such as sweeping the floor, cleaning
the toilets, sharpening pencils, printing plans etc. I also did some small
projects. Mostly detailed projects. For example, I sketch small rooms or
bathrooms for a certain project.
Q&A
“An architect is like a conductor in an orchestra.An
architect needs to know about all the profession and
what they do in the construction industry.”


Q: Do you think that the rise in technology changed the way architects
work now? How?
A: Yes, of course. During the old days, architects use paper to sketch their
proposals, plans etc. But now, majority of the architects uses laptops or
desktop to draw out their plans. Because of technology, people nowadays
don't use their imagination anymore. The clients want the architects or
designers or anyone to show them the photorealistic picture. They don’t use
their heads to think what colour matches with what colour anymore. Clients
will ask for the photorealistic pictures.
Q: Did you have any small projects back in the UK when you were
studying?
A: Yes. I did had some projects in UK. But the projects were small scale. For
example, small cottage, toilets and wash rooms, and more.
Q: What do you think about the projects in UK compared to in Malaysia?
A: When i was still in the UK, there were some small projects such as
building a small homestay cottage like in Malaysia. But the difference are the
bricks in the wall. Because UK has 4 seasons, their walls are two bricks thick
while in Malaysia, it is only one brick. And there is a gap between the two
bricks for air(called cavity). In UK they don’t have toilets in every room but
in Malaysia, we have toilets in every room.
Q: What are your advices to us as a professional architect?
A: You can go to work part-time in an architect firm after foundation. Just to
test out wether you like the job or not. You should ask lecturers or architects
about how will you be a successful architect. They will judge you by your
work.

Q: What kind of qualities should an architect have? A: An architect has a very big responsibility in construction industry. So, the first thing is that being an architect, you need to have a sense of responsibility to all projects/work. An architect should have perseverance as you need to do sketching and drawings again and again if the sketching got rejected. An architect also should have a sense of timing. He/She has to know how to manage his/her time and don't procrastinate. Q: What did you do as a junior architect? A: I mostly did odd jobs in the office such as sweeping the floor, cleaning the toilets, sharpening pencils, printing plans etc. I also did some small projects. Mostly detailed projects. For example, I sketch small rooms or bathrooms for a certain project. Q&A “An architect is like a conductor in an orchestra.An architect needs to know about all the profession and what they do in the construction industry.”

 Q: Do you think that the rise in technology changed the way architects work now? How? A: Yes, of course. During the old days, architects use paper to sketch their proposals, plans etc. But now, majority of the architects uses laptops or desktop to draw out their plans. Because of technology, people nowadays don't use their imagination anymore. The clients want the architects or designers or anyone to show them the photorealistic picture. They don’t use their heads to think what colour matches with what colour anymore. Clients will ask for the photorealistic pictures. Q: Did you have any small projects back in the UK when you were studying? A: Yes. I did had some projects in UK. But the projects were small scale. For example, small cottage, toilets and wash rooms, and more. Q: What do you think about the projects in UK compared to in Malaysia? A: When i was still in the UK, there were some small projects such as building a small homestay cottage like in Malaysia. But the difference are the bricks in the wall. Because UK has 4 seasons, their walls are two bricks thick while in Malaysia, it is only one brick. And there is a gap between the two bricks for air(called cavity). In UK they don’t have toilets in every room but in Malaysia, we have toilets in every room. Q: What are your advices to us as a professional architect? A: You can go to work part-time in an architect firm after foundation. Just to test out wether you like the job or not. You should ask lecturers or architects about how will you be a successful architect. They will judge you by your work. Q&A
