The architects main soulmate!!BUILDINGS!

ARCHITECTS AND BUILDINGS ARE LIKE BESTFRIEND..BUILDINGS EXISTS THROUGH THE DESIGNS FROM ARCHITECTS..NOWADAYS,THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF BUILDINGS WHOLE OVER THE WORLD..WHO CREATE THEM?????
YES,YOU ARE RIGHT..ARCHITECT IS THE ANSWER..

''Building requires preservation and maintenance of buildings of the past, which have historical and architectural significance. It is a process which leads to the prolongation of the life of cultural property and for its utilization now and in the future.
Building conservation has long been of concern, although its popular applications is relatively recent in origin. In Malaysia, the practice of building conservation is considered new in the local architectural scene. In the past few years, many historic buildings have been preserved and conserved while others have been converted to become premises for a bank, restaurant, information centre or a printing office.
Before practising building conservation, one including an architect, building contractor, planner or anyone who has the interest in saving an historic building must have a broad understanding of the field itself.
This is of course to ensure that any action carried out during the conservation work is properly performed and is in accord not only with the building requirements but is within the scope of contemporary knowledge of the subject. The main purpose of this paper is to study the common problems of historic buildings in Malaysia and proportion of building conditions. This includes a discussion on building materials and their common problems or defects mainly of timber, stone, brick and plaster.''

THESE IS WHAT Dr A. GHAFAR AHMAD SAID ABOUT THE BUILDINGS IN ARCHITECTURE..
what can i conclude about what he said was that architects are mainly a carieer of designing a building and without architect,building will exists but not in professional way..
