The Australian Institute of Architects shall unite architects to advance architecture

Australian Institute of Architects Victoria

Welcome to Australian Institute of Architects Victoria

The Australian Institute of Architects exists to:

advance the interests of members, their professional standards and contemporary practice, and
expand and advocate the value of architects and architecture to the sustainable growth of our community, economy and culture.

The Australian Institute of Architects is a national body consisting of almost 10,000 members across Australia and overseas. The Institute was formed in 1930 when state architectural Institutes combined to form a unified national association with the following aims:

To advance architecture
To maintain the integrity and standing of the profession
To promote the profession's views nationally and internationally, and
To encourage the study of architecture

Since then, the Australian Institute of Architects has evolved into a dynamic and progressive national organisation with active programs in many areas relating to the architectural profession. We also provide services to other sectors of the community.

By promoting better, responsible and environmental design, the Institute actively lobbies to maintain and improve the quality of our built environment. Raising design standards in our cities, urban areas, commercial and residential buildings, architects and the Institute have a major role in shaping Australia's future.
