⚠️ Architecture by Architects. Not by imposters.
Unregistered individuals are illegally offering architectural services, and registered architects' credentials are being misused in BLUP applications - without their knowledge.
This is not just unethical. It's a criminal offence.
✅ Always verify your architect's registration before engaging their services.

✅ Ensure the architect named in your BLUP application has personally authorised the submission.

✅ Report any suspected misconduct to the PAC, CCID, or FCC.
🔎 Check the official Register of Architects before you build:

Professional standards exist to protect the public. Always work with registered professionals.
