Good design is for everyone, everywhere

The Australian Institute of Architects works in the belief that everyone benefits from good architecture. Good design is not something to be reserved for a wealthy few. Our regional towns profit from highly considered built environments as much as our cities.

This core belief influences us all: staff, volunteers, National Council and Board of Directors.
