AIA supports freedom in design and is extremely concerned about any revisions that remove control from local communities or mandate official federal design preferences that hinder design freedom.
The American Institute of Architects (AIA) is aware of the recent Memorandum for the Administrator of General Services (GSA) regarding The White House’s request to review the GSA’s Guiding Principles for Federal Architecture. AIA is extremely concerned about any revisions that remove control from local communities; mandate official federal design preferences, or otherwise hinder design freedom; and add bureaucratic hurdles for federal buildings.
WASHINGTON – January 17, 2025 –The National Housing Survey, conducted by the American Institute of Architects (AIA) and the U.S. Conference of Mayors (USCM) found that mayors anticipate the total housing shortfall, currently estimated at between 4 and 7 million units, will increase by more than 2 million units over the next five years, underscoring the immediate need for bold federal action. Findings from the USCM-AIA National Housing Survey highlight widespread concerns from mayors about escalating costs, insufficient federal funding, and onerous regulatory requirements.
