Learn About Architecture
Architects are problem solvers and forward-thinkers. They combine their imagination and art, along with science, technology, engineering and math to design projects. By nurturing the future of the profession, evolving our organization, engaging our membership, cultivating connections, and promoting the value of good design; we aim to create lasting change in our community. Together, we can elevate the value of architecture and advocate for design excellence to shape a better, more equitable future.
