The redevelopment of The American Institute of Architects (AIA) headquarters into the AIA Global Campus for Architecture & Design® is the subject of a new short documentary, Ideals ByDesign.
This special presentation follows the evolution of a historic Brutalist building into one of the nation’s first major net-zero retrofit projects.
Presented in association with the team at ByDESIGN, this documentary brings the story of the AIA’s headquarters to a wide broadcast audience. This collaboration highlights the shared commitment of both organizations to elevate architectural excellence and sustainable innovation.
A Living Model of Innovation
The AIA Global Campus stands as a cultural destination in the heart of Washington, D.C. The project demonstrates how existing infrastructure can be transformed into a living model of sustainability and historic preservation. Every space within the campus is designed to invite connection, spark creativity, and welcome the public into the future of the built environment.
