On 21st March 2018, the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) published a new report Global by Design 2018 containing the results from the most comprehensive survey of architects on Brexit.

The report provides insight into the impact of Brexit uncertainty as well as the major priorities and trends facing the architectural profession. Stark warnings are raised concerning both an exodus of talent and cancelled building projects, as well as the continued lack of clarity on the future relationship between the UK and EU.

Among the survey’s findings are:

* 74% of architects believe friction-less access to the single market is a priority for expanding international work.
* 68% of architects have reported projects put on-hold since the EU referendum.
* 43% of architects have reported projects cancelled since the EU referendum.
* 71% of architects are concerned that Brexit will have a negative impact on the built environment.
* 60% of EU architects have considered leaving the UK since the referendum.

It is worth considering some of these findings alongside those of 2017’s report, which found that 61% had reported project delays, 36% had reported cancellations, and 40% of EU architects had considered leaving. This indicates that attitudes among architects towards Brexit, as well as their project experiences, are becoming steadily more negative.

In response to the concerns raised, RIBA’s report sets out a series of recommendations for the government to maintain and strengthen the UK as a global hub for architecture, including:

* A deal that maintains market access and avoids non-tariff barriers.
* New services trade agreements with priority markets, thereby opening new opportunities for UK architecture.
* An immigration system which continues to allow businesses to access ‘the best global talent’.
* Continued mutual recognition of architects’ professional qualifications with the EU.
* New mutual recognition agreements for markets in markets such as USA, Canada and Australia.
* Expansion of the scope and range of support for architectural exports.

RIBA President Ben Derbyshire said:

“2018 is a critical year for the UK and whilst our architect members are adaptable and creative, the results from our survey show increasing uncertainty amongst the profession. While the UK Government has provided the headlines on the country’s future relationship with the EU, we need urgent action from them if the UK is to stem the talent exodus and inspire confidence in UK construction investment.

“The UK must maintain and strengthen its role as a global centre for architecture, responsible for creating innovative and inspiring buildings and communities in the UK and across the world. But to do this we need the right agreements and conditions in place to ensure that the UK continues to be a global facing nation and an attractive place to live, work and invest. We will be continuing to make this case to Government on behalf of our members.”
