A professional
meets the highest standards within any
specific industry. When you hire a
professional you have chosen to seek
specialized knowledge based on intensive
academic preparation combined with technical
and ethical standards.
Architects put the interests of their
client, and of the public, above their own.
The Ontario Government has given Ontario’s
architects the privilege and responsibility
of self-regulation. Established under the
Architects Act, the Ontario Association of
Architects “…regulates the practice of
architecture in Ontario … in order that the
public interest may be served and
protected.” Architects Act, RSO 1990, c.A.26
The Architects Act and the Ontario Building
Code list the types of buildings for which
you must engage an architect. However, even
where it is not required by law, you will
want to consult a professional, an
architect, to help ensure that your building
project is as successful as possible.
