The California Architecture Foundation’s vision is centered on:
Empowering Tomorrow’s Architects
We equip budding architects to thrive on their academic journey. From scholarships to internships that provide invaluable mentorship opportunities, we act as a vital link between academia and the dynamic world of professional design.
Championing Architects and Their Impact
We’re on a mission to raise awareness and appreciation for the pivotal role architects play in shaping our built environment. Through dynamic initiatives such as design competitions, prestigious awards, and strategic partnerships, we highlight the transformative power of architecture in crafting vibrant, healthy, and sustainable communities.
Igniting A Passion for Architecture
We are committed to igniting interest in architecture and the important role architects play in solving the critical challenges facing our communities, our state and our planet. Through our Built Environment Education Programs (BEEP) we introduce students of all ages to architecture and showcase the diversity and remarkable skills and value architects bring to society.
We implement our vision by focusing on:
The Future of the Profession
