As others have said, it depends on what aspect of the field you’re interested in. Architecture would allow you to design the look of the building as well as the space inside. Civil engineering would allow you to design the physical structure that the architect envisions. Majoring in either of these fields will give you the option of working for a contractor, who actually makes the designs a reality.

EDIT: I forgot about the construction management major, which is offered in some places. It more or less combines some engineering with some business and is lighter on the math than engineering. You won’t be doing any designing though.
