Robert Janson 11. Their effort is not divided amongst several projects, allowing them to closely monitor and communicate all design details to the constructors. For example with three simultaneous projects, the architect would have difficulty being at your site once per week. They were able to lavish on their projects the countless hours, the perfectionistic fervor and the plain love that distinguishes the fine arts from lessor efforts. Herbert Warren Wind 12.
More projects mean more staff.
This means more time training more time overseeing their work and more time spent looking for projects to pay the staff. It's a viscous cycle, translating to less and less involvement by the architect. No conscientious architect should accept more commissions during any season than he can give his personal attention to. William Flynn 13. Some architects standardize their construction style, then stick by a few contractors familiar with it.
