The QUAD Conference is the ideation of AIA Connecticut, AIA New Jersey, AIA New York State, and AIA Pennsylvania. Each of our states are unique and struggle with the balance between large urban centers and the most remote corners of our states. We are looking for proposals that embrace high quality design and inclusion – and can be applied across socioeconomic or regional boundaries.

As architects and creators of the built environment, we have opportunities to be reflective of the communities we presently live in and be designers of the future. Whether we practice in a rural part of the country or a big city, our responsibility to the built environment does not waiver. The QUAD State Conference will bring together architects and other professionals willing to share their knowledge.

Programs must address common challenges and common opportunities, and illustrate how Quality Unites Architectural Design.

Thank you for taking the time to make your submission to be a part of the 2017 QUAD State Conference.
