The Road to Regulation
The AIBC has been regulating the profession of architecture since 1920! In recognition of the Institute's decades of regulation, we will be exploring the province’s rich architectural history, as well as the AIBC’s past, present and future, through a series of fast facts.
On the first Thursday of each month, we will be unveiling a new decade. By May 2020, we will have all 10 shared! See more on aibc.ca/100.
Fast Fact: In 1891, there were 25 architects listed in a B.C. Directory. |
