On June 18, 2025, ISA officially became a registered architecture firm. This marks a new chapter in our journey — with the same commitment to quality, now under full architectural registration.
We’ve always designed with rigour, but now, as registered architects, we bring even greater value, accountability, and architectural insight to every project.
While our registration status has changed, our design philosophy remains the same. Our focus continues to be on high-performance spaces that elevate how people live, move, work, and recover.
You might notice that some of our earlier blog posts refer to us as a building designer or drafting firm. These articles were written before registration and remain published for transparency and SEO continuity.
Registration isn’t just a title — it’s a legal and professional benchmark. It affirms that we meet the national standards set out by architectural boards, and gives our clients confidence in the rigour behind our work.
Greater accountability — We’re now governed by the Board of Architects Queensland and must uphold strict ethical and professional codes
Broader scope — We can take on more complex or regulated projects that require a registered architect
Deeper capability — With architectural registration comes enhanced planning, contract, and construction expertise
Yes — same team, same leadership, same values. Becoming registered doesn’t change who we are, it expands what we can do for our clients.
Our approach is still grounded in clear communication, tailored design, and high performance. Registration enhances our ability to lead projects with greater architectural authority.
Absolutely. We design homes, retreats, lifestyle properties, and more — and now do so under full architectural registration.
If we designed your project before registration, rest assured — the same rigour and care were applied. This milestone simply reflects the path we’ve been on all along.
Yes. Whether you’re planning a project or need clarity on next steps, we’re here to guide you — no pressure, just insight.
Becoming a registered architecture firm marks an exciting evolution for ISA™ — one that deepens our value to clients and our contribution to the built environment.
We’re proud of this step, but even more excited for what it enables: more thoughtful projects, more clarity for clients, and more meaningful design outcomes.
If you’re considering a project, we’d love to hear about it.
