Commercial Architect

Commercial architects are professionals who design buildings intended for use as commercial properties, such as office buildings, retail spaces and restaurants. After designing properties, these professionals oversee architectural projects, ensuring that construction personnel comply with a client's choices, common design principles and applicable regulations, such as building codes. Commercial architects typically work from an office located near a construction site so they can frequently gauge a project's progress. Many architects work for construction or design companies, but others are self-employed or complete freelance work .
