Design Roles
Design Director
The design director acts as the internal critic to each of
the projects that Element Architecture Studio produces. As well as running on
of the three studios, it is their job to ensure that every project that the
company produces fits with our philosophies and ethos; liaise with our clients
before assigning the project to a studio; assign studios for competitions and
to seek new clients and work.
RIBA Directors
Each of the directors that are qualified architects is in
charge of a studio, as well as fulfill the other requirements of their role.
They are the principle designers on any project that is assigned to their
studio, though they may choose to work with another director.
CIAT Directors
The Directors trained as Architectural Technologists, as
well as their teams, oversee the technical design and development for each
project. They liaise with the design architect for the project to ensure that
the technology implemented is aiding the design of the project rather than
hindering it. It is also their job to communicate with the various consultants
that would be bought in during the design stage, such as the Structural
Engineers.
Project Architect
The Project Architect oversees the design from concept to
construction. They work closely with the lead design architect and are heavily
involved in the design development stage of the project, producing physical and
CAD models to test elements of the design and it is them who will produce the
technical drawings for the project.
Part 2 Graduate
It is the Part 2’s job to take the technical drawings for
the project and use them to create the artistic images that will be used to
present the scheme for competition entries and for the clients.
Part 1 Graduate
Fresh out of university, the Part 1 will be encouraged to
work with the lead designers so that they can develop their design ethos. Also,
they will be trained to use most CAD packages that the company requires for
BIM, CAD modelling and drafting.
