The Architects Registration Board (ARB) is the body set up by Parliament as the
independent UK regulator of architects. We keep the official UK Register of Architects, and only people
in our Register are legally entitled to use the name "architect" in business or practice.
Under Section 20 of the Architects Act 1997, the
title “architect” is protected. It can only be used in business or practice by people
who have had the education, training and experience needed to become an architect
and who are registered with us. When someone uses the title “architect”, it means
that members of the public can check with us that they are dealing with a genuine
and qualified professional. Details of any disciplinary findings against architects can
be found here.
You can find an architect by using the options below. If you can’t find the information
