ATL in English
Introduction to the work of the Association
The Association of Finnish Architects' Offices (ATL)
The
Association of Finnish Architects' Offices (ATL) is an independent organisation
monitoring and promoting the interest of the architectural industry. Its mission
is to develop architectural services and thus improve the quality of
construction and the environment. The professional membership requirements of
the association are strict.
An ATL member office is professional. To be
accepted as a member, the management of the office must have the highest
professional architectural training and solid experience of working in the
industry. The management is required to belong to the Finnish Association of
Architects, and they must be working full-time in planning, design or related
consultation.
An ATL member office is experienced. Prior to applying for
membership, the office is expected to have provided independent designing and
consultation services for a minimum of three years. To further guarantee
professional competence, the chief designers of the company must have a minimum
of seven years' experience in the field.
An ATL member office is committed.
The office leaders are required to own a majority of the company and act as the
responsible management.
Construction has become an increasingly
complicated industry, having to meet increasingly demanding challenges. Because
of the long supply chains, it takes intense effort to secure the quality of the
end result. This is why competent leadership is vital for construction and
building design. The member companies of the Association of Finnish Architect's
Offices have demonstrated through their training, experience and professional
ethics that they have the necessary competence and resources to meet these new
challenges.
Construction and building design deserve skilled and professional
management.
