Do we know how much the skill of the designer and the constructor affect the quality of the building? Does it just average out, or does the materials involved skew the results?--Xazak 17:39, 4 November 2007 (EST)
- Both are listed seperately when the structure is selected on the rooms list. Need to check if there are seperate happy thoughts for high quality design and high quality construction.--Metalax 02:11, 11 November 2007 (EST)
- There were in the old .23a release. I say this as the person who disassembled the game and found all of the thoughts.

What buildings need design?
Is there a definitive list of what structures need an architect? There should be a list either here or on the architect page.--Strangething 00:58, 7 July 2008 (EDT)
Quality of buildings and efficiency
Does the quality of a building affects its efficiency? For instance, is it faster to smelt ores at a masterpiece furnace ? --Aykavil 11:08, 10 July 2008 (EDT)
- Nope. admiration bonus only.--Maximus 12:19, 27 November 2008 (EST)

Leveling up an Architect
Most people think that leveling an architect is hard. It is really actually easy. Turn all the other labors off and have them build 1x1 paved roads from all your stone. Disassemble if needed. At first the architect is slow, but after a year or so they reach proficient or better. Now I just need to deconstruct all the old workshops and build pretty new ones. :) --Kwieland 13:08, 18 February 2009 (EST)
Mason Labor
I wanted to get a legendary Architect (just because it is cool, OK?). Anyway, I enabled ONLY the architect labor, nothing else and designated a lot of one square roads. Now my dwarf is legendary in Architecture but also (surprising to me) Adept Mason! Figure that one out! Roads don't require a mason, do they? Can anyone confirm this?--Kwieland 09:36, 27 February 2009 (EST)
Building with Soap
I'm pretty sure that constructions can be made with soap, and that the second part of construction uses Masonry but gives no experience to Masonry. Could someone please verify? Bouchart 02:50, 3 April 2009 (UTC)
Architecture Value
I highly suspect that the value of a designed building is multiplied by the sum of the architecture and construction quality value modifiers (using the same 1x/2x/3x/4x/5x/12x scale as with item quality) - a well having both masterwork design and construction boosts my architectural value by 24 times the value of its components (which, considering two of them are adamantine artifacts, amounts to over 80 million dwarfbucks). --Quietust 22:10, 29 October 2009 (UTC)
