How did you interact with the architect in projects? Describe the process of agreeing on architectural solutions.

Interaction with the architect is usually based on regular meetings and discussions where key architectural decisions and their impact on the project are discussed.

The process of agreeing on architectural decisions often includes:

1. Presenting project requirements and constraints.
2. The architect proposes solution options with justification of pros and cons.
3. Joint analysis of the proposed options with the development team.
4. Selecting the optimal solution considering technical, business, and time factors.
5. Documenting the architecture and its changes.

In my practice, we used prototypes and diagrams to visualize the architecture, which facilitated understanding and sped up the approval process.
