The Architect is the 4th studio album from Paloma Faith. The singer released her UK certified double platinum debut album Do You Want the Truth or Something Beautiful? in 2009, followed by Fall to Grace in 2012, and A Perfect Contradiction in 2014 which has been her most successful album to date.

The Architect album features the singles "Guilty" and "Crybaby." In addition to a stellar collection of new songs, Paloma invited a supporting cast on this album that includes Samuel L. Jackson, John Legend, Rag 'n' Bone Man and David Arnold. Commenting on this body of work, Paloma says "I was adamant with this record that I wouldn't write about love - I wanted to look outside of myself and write about wider issues facing our world, but ironically, when you listen to it, it's really a whole album about love."
