About the AIA Committee on Design:

The AIA Committee on Design (COD) was founded to promote design excellence among members of the  AIA, the broader design community, and the public at large, both nationally and internationally.  The Committee on Design is led by a volunteer advisory group of eight architects and an adjunct leadership team of 11 additional individuals. In realizing our mission, we promote a range of activities intended to encourage a dialogue on the art of building.
