Specific objective of this research is to investigate the use of BIM and urban data from p ersp ective an architect, analy ze reduced architects’ influence, owners crush design fees and possibilities to take back design control. Literature review, daily spontaneous interviews with participants in the planning and design phase of Prishtina projects and three interviews with experts in information technology have been conducted. Understanding role in change influenced by technology and increasing urban data would minimize misunderstandings and provide architects and each participant in construction industry with clear responsibilities.
