The architect-symbols actually include electrical, plumbing, and wall framing, but for simplicity sake, we'll say that the architectural designs are for the things like doors, kitchen cabinets, walls, stairs, and appliance measurements.

I like to use grid paper to keep all the dimensions and measurements to scale. Architects draw up plans that make all the components of a house fit together.

Still, most plans require a small amount of alteration because things seldom turn out the way they're supposed to.

Important things like stairs, load-bearing walls, fireplaces, bathrooms and kitchens need to be planned out really well because they are difficult to alter.
