There are many descriptions of architecture and here are some that might help outline its diversity.
Architects make architecture, historians make history and what they both make is myth.
Architects design quality environments in which people live, work and play. Besides providing good building design, architects are also involved in urban design, environmental research, building conservation, heritage matters etc. Architects also make a significant contribution to community development from their background of comprehensive training and professional discipline. If you can see yourself designing structures and environments which require both artistic and technical skill, if you are concerned for people and their welfare, environmental sustainable design and wish to make a valuable contribution to the built environment then architecture would probably suit you. These qualifications, together with approved professional experience will allow you to become registered and to legally call yourself an architect.
