Architectural registration STATE vs. NATIONAL. Do you know the difference?

Architectural registration can be at state and national levels. State registration allows architects to offer services only within the state in which they are licensed. National registration allows architects to become registered in any state!

CJ Architects is nationally certified. In addition to our New England licenses, we are now going Tropical- in the Virgin Islands!

Are you familiar with Indigenous architecture?

Indigenous architecture refers to the style of building and design developed by native people of a particular region or culture. This architectural style is tied to the natural environment characterized by their use of local materials and cultural symbolism.

The Chippewa of Thames Heritage Hub project aims to bring economic development to the local community while protecting and preserving the Chippewa of Thames.

We look forward to seeing this style of architecture gain more prominence!
