Architecture | | French term or phrase: architecte mandataire | Hello,
I'm looking for the equivalent in English (UK preferably) of "architecte mandataire". The context is a list of contributors to an architectural and landscaping project. It is under the heading "Autres intervenants" along with the heading "Architecte local".
Thanks in advance,
