Architects Organized Early Through the Ages
Architects have formed voluntary associations since classical guilds and revived in the medieval and eighteenth centuries. London clubs appeared in 1791 and 1806, followed by the Royal Institute of British Architects in 1834 with Earl de Grey as president. The Architectural Association began about 1846 and Westminster’s Architectural Museum opened July 21, 1869. The American Institute of Architects was incorporated in New York in 1857.
