I hope you have already created custom post types for Architects and Projects. In order to make a relation between them you may follow any of the methods below:
a.) Using ACF:
b.) Using Toolset:
c.) Using Posts to Posts plugin (Use it at your own risk as the plugin hasn’t been tested with the latest 3 major releases of WordPress)
d.) Using metabox code by user @vmassuchetto
How do I create a relationship between two custom post types?
