Most architects I know are earning £30,000 - £40,000 a year. In his first year with his first architectural firm, my brother earned about £20,000. Top partners and directors in a sizeable architectural firm may earn around £80,000 - £90,000. Award-winning architects and those with their own firms will earn considerably more. There are also of course fluctuations in salary according to area - those working in capital cities on large and private sector projects will earn more on the whole than those in other regions working on small or public sector projects.
