Usually takes on the balance of the architectural effort not executed by the "Design Architect," typically responsible for the construction documents, conforming to local codes, etc. May often be referred to as "Executive," "Associate," or "Local" Architect, however, for consistency CTBUH uses the term "Architect of Record" exclusively.

The Tempo Scan Tower was designed to be an icon in the Golden Triangle embassy district, contrasting the surrounding rectilinear forms with a subtlely curving geometry. The sleek glazed façade is broken up by the horizontal floor plates and vertical fins, creating a spiraling effect around the building.
The tower is shaped by a skin that curves at the corners, creating a multidimensional presence and making it equally frontal from all directions. Each side is gently bowed; it begins narrow at the base and broadens at the center, before narrowing again at the roof. The curves and soft edges allow the building to project an elegant and sophisticated profile on Jakarta’s skyline, distinct from surrounding developments. The curve is shaped in segments, with each floor stepping incrementally in or out from the next to create a ripple effect.
