What kind of relationship existed between a Greek colony and its Metropolis on the Greek mainland?
Each colony kept close ties with its metropolis, or "parent city." A colony supplied its metropolis with grain ---- wheat and barley. Farmers on the Greek mainland produced wine, olive oil, and other cash crops for export. Because vineyards and olive groves needed fewer workers than did grain fields, many farmers moved to the cities, where they learned crafts. With more goods to sell, Greek merchants began trading throughout the Mediterranean region.

Why did greek designers take such great care when designing their buildings?
If the question is coming purely from a structural perspective, the Ancient Greeks took care to build well in order to prevent the building falling on top of them. If the question is coming from a design perspective, e.g. the various columns and other design elements, what is important to note is that most of the buildings that we have from Ancient Greece and are popular attractions are the major public buildings, like Theaters or Temples for the Gods or Palaces and are naturally much prettier on those grounds (just like how our theaters, centers of worship, and government buildings are well designed).
