CONCLUSIONS
in setting up a medium sized architectural firm,
one is to consider the size of staffs and the division of
works and expertise to be employed which will
determine the amount, numbers and types of
equipments and furniture needed for the office.

RECOMMENDATIONS
•complete set of equipment and furniture for each staff
should be considered since it is likely that the
employed architect would by working on his own
projects singlehandedly and disturbances would slow
down productivity
•special considerations should be made for the
partners as the architectural firm is likely to be a
partnership business
