A full-service architect supports a project across all phases, from early planning and design through construction. This includes developing concepts, coordinating with engineers, preparing construction documents, and supporting permitting and construction activities.

Architectural design typically includes pre-design, schematic design, design development, construction documentation, and construction-phase services. Each phase builds on the previous one to guide a project from concept to completion.

Architects are licensed professionals trained to design buildings while addressing safety, regulatory, and technical requirements. They coordinate closely with engineers and other specialists throughout the design and construction process.

Architecture works alongside engineering to ensure design concepts align with building systems, structure, and applicable codes. At Colliers Engineering & Design, this coordination happens within one integrated, in-house team.
