Architecture is always about a mix of art and science which I personally fond of both. As a person adaptability and the love for new challenges are essentials, but as a designer consistency and accuracy are substantial. Being in a love hate relationship with design because sometimes it is not all about our desire to express but for the one(s) we are designing for instead. The best designers though will always be capable of balancing all which is why constant desire in improving self to perfection is a must.
