| I think it depends on the type of work you get into. Commercial architects spend hours on drawings, and looking up codes, etc. Residential is less intense. The pressure to have something absolutely perfect is much greater when you are designing a school, or an office building, etc.
One architect i talked to was designing a school for autistic students. He had to get the natural lighting JUST right, so that the light wasn't distracting to the students. apparently they get really freaked out by excessive light or something and are unable to focus. |
