Saving time matters to your practice. As an architect, throughout your day you are pulled into various projects that demand different skills and levels of attention and management. Yet the design process requires intense focus and concentration, with few distractions so that ideas can flow freely. If administrative tasks become a burden, less time is left for the creative work that is at the heart of architecture.
