A message from AIA Michigan's President
Alan H. Cobb, FAIA

Our Legislative Day (March 17th) in Lansing was a great success, and well attended by over 100 architects and engineers from around the State. Our legislative agenda remains an important part of what AIA Michigan does for our profession. Over 75 members of the Michigan Legislature were visited by architects and engineers armed with important information on current issues that affect our businesses. With the state of the economy it is very important for architects to be heard in Lansing.

There are five Bills being introduced in the State Senate and House that have a sustainability or energy conscious focus. We have been invited to the table by our legislators as experts in sustainable design to provide analysis and advice, and we welcome this role in our State and Federal Government.

To that end MAF sifted through nearly 500 of Michigan’s most architecturally significant buildings to winnow the list for this volume to 150. With photographs by Balthazar Korab and text by John Gallagher, this book will be indispensable for anyone wanting to learn more about Michigan’s impressive architectural legacy... 
 

WHY AN ARCHITECT

 		 What do Architects Do

Few people realize how complicated it is to build--that is until they find themselves lost in the maze of design options, building codes, zoning laws, contractors, and so on. No two building projects are exactly alike, so there is no single, clear-cut path to follow.

The architect is the one professional who has the education, training, experience, and vision to guide you through the entire design and construction process, from helping you define what you want to build to helping you get the most for your construction dollar. . .   

 

 Why Use AIA Architects

Most building projects start with a want or need. "I need more file space in my office." Or, "We've outgrown our house." But how does that need or want get translated into square feet and three-dimensional space?

That is what architects are trained to do--solve problems in creative ways. With their broad knowledge of design and construction, architects can show you alternatives and options you might never think of on your own.  . .
