One who assesses situation and defines goals for analysis and resolution in fresh form then provides the guidance for its implementation.

In this, the architect combines survey and interpretation, art and science, documentation and management, planning and development.

An architect may work with buildings or anything else. Their work is usually conceived as a project and their involvement spans the breadth of that project extending beyond it to its multitude of connections. The title when used alone refers to those trained and registered to deal with the built environment. That title may be linked to any other field of endeavour to describe by association with the nature of the architectural profession, the capability of developing a similar process.

A group of arrogant SOBs that think because they can draw pretty buildings that engineers are obsolete.
I am an architect. I just need an engineer for their "stamp".

A useless fruit who smokes pot and draws houses. Architects require engineers to fix all of their mistakes.
If that architect wasn't so high all the time maybe he'd have drawn this correctly.

An architect is an engineer that didn't have the brain to get their degree, but they found in the first years of college that they could use autocad.
"Oh Tim, so you are an architect now huh?"

"Yea, I just couldn't get through dynamics and statics otherwise I'd be a practicing engineer."

Taylor Swift is one on the world's leading architects, she is best known for her world class indestructible bridges. She has continuously baffled her fellow architects and physicians as it is a well known fact that her bridges defy the laws of Physics.
The bridge in 'Death By A Thousand Cuts' is one of her strongest ones ever, it defies the law of physics. A prime example of an amazing Architect.

Taylor Swift is a world class architect who is mainly known for her indestructible bridges, that defy the laws of physics, gravity and baffle her peers and physicians alike. Some of Miss Swift's well known bridges are 'Sparks Fly', 'All Too Well', 'Getaway Car' and finally 'Wildest Dreams' (just to name a few).
The bridge from 'Death By a Thousand Cuts' really shows off Taylor's talent as one of the best architects out there, I mean it clearly defies the law of physics.
