The story

The Danish Association of Architects was founded at the initiative of L. A. Petersen on 21 November 1879. The principal aim was to advance and promote architectural quality by influencing planning and design of the physical environment in the widest possible context.

Between 1951 and 2004, the Danish Association of Architects was part of the umbrella organisation National Association of Danish Architects (Danish: Danske Arkitekters Landsforbund/Akademisk Arkitektforening; DAL/AA). In 2004, DAL/AA was demerged into the Danish Association of Architects, the Danish Union of Architects, and the industry organisation Arkitekters Råd (now Danske Arkitektvirksomheder).
