The Register of architects is in two parts: 'Practising' and 'Retired or non-practising'
Practising architects are registered to provide architectural services that lead directly to the design of buildings or parts of buildings. As a condition of registration, practising architects must have Professional Indemnity insurance cover in respect of their work as an architect.
Retired or non-practising architects have elected for a range of reasons to register in this category and have signed a declaration that they will not practice as an architect in Victoria for the period of that registration (usually 12 months). Architects in this list are not required to provide evidence of Professional Indemnity insurance cover.
The Register of approved architectural companies contains those companies that comply with the requirement that at least one Director is an architect covered by Professional Indemnity insurance.
The Register of approved architectural Partnerships contains those Partnerships that comply with the requirement that at least one Partner is an architect covered by Professional Indemnity insurance.
The list of registered architects, architectural companies and architectural partnerships available on this site is an extract from the ARBV Register database.
The list provides the name, registration number and suburb/postcode for practising architects registered with the Board. The contact phone details are provide where the architect/company have given permission to do so. This information is that which is available to the Board at time of publication. Changes to registered status, address and phone number may have occurred in the interim. Contact the Board if your search shows a negative result - 03 9417 4444. |
Periodical updates will occur during the year.
A printed copy of the full register may be obtained from the Board for a fee of $100. (Postage extra)
The register relies on accurate spelling, capitals and other details. Use the browse option if unsure or your first attempt produces no details.
Further inquiries may be made with the Board. See contact details.
