A DAY IN THE LIFE OF A LEAD ARCHITECTURAL DESIGNER Start your day with a coffee just how you like it from the Commons Review project schedules and prioritize your day. Most days will involve design development, developing construction documents, and reviewing shop drawings and RFIs. Work with and oversee designers. Got a question? Swing by your Project Manager's desk to talk it through. Lunchtime already? Enjoy food trucks on-site during summer, or head five minutes down the road for your go-to fast food. Need a break? Walk around the pond or hit the on-site fitness center. Jump back in with a client call or coordinate with our in-house teams to align on project scope. Clear communication keeps us moving forward. Need input from MEPs? A quick walk down the hall gets you the answers you need. End the day with a drink in the Excellar or unwind with a game of pool and some laughs with the team. WHAT SHOULD YOU BE ABLE TO DO?
