1. Overall Focus
Architects focus on design， aesthetics， space， and human experience.
Engineers focus on safety， structure， function， and technical performance.
Architects ask: “How should this building look and feel?”
Engineers ask: “How can we make this building stand safely and work properly?”

**Architect
Primary Role：
• Designs the appearance， layout， and user experience of buildings.
• Creates concepts， drawings， and models.

**Engineer
(Usually refers to Civil Engineers， Structural Engineers， Mechanical/Electrical Engineers， etc.)
Primary Role
• Ensures the building is safe， stable， and technically functional.
• Calculates loads， materials， and structural systems.
• Designs mechanical， electrical， and plumbing systems.
Key Responsibilities

**How They Work Together
Architects and engineers are not rivals—they are partners.
• The architect imagines the building.
• The engineer makes that vision possible and safe.
A successful project requires both creativity and engineering precision.
