The Australian Institute of Architects, officially the Royal Australian Institute of Architects (abbreviated as RAIA), is Australia's professional body for architects. Its members use the post-nominals FRAIA (Fellow) and RAIA (Members, also the organisation's abbreviation). The Institute supports 14,000 members across Australia, including 550 Australian members who are based in architectural roles across 40 countries outside Australia. SONA (Student Organised Network for Architecture) is the national student-membership body of the Australian Institute of Architects.[1] EmAGN (Emerging Architects and Graduates Network) represents architectural professionals within 15 years of graduation, as part of the Australian Institute of Architects.[2]

History

The Australian Institute of Architects was established on 6 September 1929 and continued under this name until 18 August 1930, when the 'Royal' title was granted, and it became the Royal Australian Institute of Architects.[3]

A number of states formed professional societies for architects, including the Queensland Institute of Architects,[4] and the West Australian Institute of Architects.

The South Australian Institute of Architects (SAIA) was founded by a resolution passed by a group of architects on 20 September 1886,[5] and in 1904 Walter Hervey Bagot designed its seal.[6] David Williams was one of the founding group, and was president from 1911 to 1913. During this time he called on the South Australian Government to hold design competitions for large public buildings, and the SAIA also became an allied member of the Royal Institute of British Architects.[5]

The Australian Institute was formed in 1929, when state architectural institutes combined to form a unified national association. However, a full federation of the state-based institutes did not come about immediately, with some states maintaining their independence. The South Australian Institute of Architects joined up in July 1962, becoming the 'South Australian Chapter'.[7][8][6] The Royal Victorian Institute of Architects (RVIA) was the last to join, in 1968.[9]

The national headquarters was formerly located in Red Hill, Canberra, in a 1968 building designed by Sydney Ancher from Sydney firm Ancher, Mortlock and Woolley. This building still functions as the ACT Chapter offices.[10]

Name change

In August 2008,[6] following an informal poll of members in 2001, the National Council resolved to continue trading as the 'Australian Institute of Architects', while retaining 'Royal Australian Institute of Architects' as the legal name. The postnominals of FRAIA (Fellow) and RAIA (Members and organisation abbreviation) continue to be used with the legal name abbreviated.[11]

Purpose, functions, affiliations

As a professional body representing architects, the institute is represented on many national and state industry and government bodies, and is affiliated with the International Union of Architects (UIA).

A chapter is maintained in each state and territory,

Latin: Artem Promovemus Una ("United we advance architecture")[107]
Symbolism
In 1927 the Federal Council of Australian Institutes of Architects adopted a design for the seal of the proposed Federal Institute by two Tasmanian architects, Alan Cameron Walker and Archibald Thomas Johnston, that was based upon the seal of the Royal Institute of British Architects, using kangaroos instead of lions and a rising sun in the shield.[108] The coat of arms granted by the College of Arms in 1956 was based upon this seal, as have all subsequent institute logos and badges, with the most recent version of the logo adopted in 2008.[108] The Latin motto was originally adopted at the suggestion of Victorian architect, William Arthur Mordey Blackett, at the 1928 Conference of the Federal Council of Australian Institutes of Architects, which discussed the establishment of the federal institute, with the motto's original translation given as "We advance our Art together".[109] In a 1951 edition of the Institute Journal, Architecture, the RAIA President, Cobden Parkes, explained further on the motto and its meaning:

The Institute motto, "Artem promovemus una", literally translated, means something like "Together we advance the profession". More subjectively it is construed in the first tenet of the Memorandum of Association of the Institute as "the advancement of architecture"; for when it speaks of a profession, our motto obviously means that of architecture.[110]
