What is AIA Idaho?

The Force for Positive Change
Since 1857, when 13 architects formed what would become The American Institute of Architects, the letters AIA have signified the highest standards in architectural practice. Today, more than 160 years later, with 96,000+ members, the letters AIA still deliver an abiding promise of rigorous education, extensive training, real-world experience, and a commitment to professional excellence recognized by clients, civic leaders, and the public.
AIA Idaho Chapter represents 400 architect members and affiliated industry members.

Architects are the perfect partners to bring a community's vision of a city to life. Architects have the professional skill and experience to turn an idea into a lasting legacy.
Due to their unique skills and training, architects have the ability to anticipate potential future issues that can affect our cities and take proactive steps to address them.
Architects are known as trusted advisors on buildings, but did you know that all over the US, architects are working with mayors and other civic leaders to take on critical issues facing our cities, like rising water, natural disasters, sustainability, and housing shortages?
We can send your RFP / RFQ to all AIA Idaho Architects or Architects in your region.
