From the National President

As you no doubt have heard through press releases or direct email, last week the Archicentre Board with the support of the Institute Board and National Council, made the difficult decision to halt trading of Archicentre, our wholly owned subsidiary, after 36 years of dedicated service.

Archicentre had achieved many great successes over the past three decades, offering building inspection services and concept design advice to the public who would otherwise be unlikely to work with architects, as well as bring changes to consumer awareness and protection. Unfortunately following considerable market changes, escalation in operating costs and the expiration of a valuable long-term contract, all resulting in an untenable financial position, the time had come bring things to an end.
