By assisting a sole practitioner, this position gave me a valuable insight into the way an Architect works as an individual, the tasks that need to be undertaken and the requirements expected. Detailed conversations with the Director allowed me to gather essential information on defining the role that an Architect can play on a project. I worked on the design and preparation of Planning Applications for several residential and commercial mixed-use schemes.
