Many building projects involve work for tenants, and there is a wide range of variables affecting the architect's approach to each individual tenancy commission. It is important to articulate the scope of works to be performed by the tenant’s architect and to ensure there is clear articulation of responsibilities between the tenant designer and project base build designer.

The two most common building types for tenancy work are office buildings and shopping centres.
