                <text>NEW ARCHITECTURE MOVEMENT&#13;
HOW IT ALL BEGAN - A PERSONAL DESCRIPTION &#13;
&#13;
User involvement in Design &#13;
As the project architect of the new Edgewick Primary School in Coventry, I was briefed by the City Education Client Officer, a helpful, experienced and committed client. But when I asked him how I should accommodate useful suggestions from the new Head Teacher about the design of her new school he said, “Just ignore her”. I decided instead to ignore him and went on to work closely with the Head teacher, staff and pupils in developing the design of a successful and well-regarded Primary School adjacent to the existing Victorian Primary School, situated near a large Courtaulds factory and not far from the centre of Coventry.&#13;
For me this was proof that the users of a building must be fully involved if the design is to be successful. It was a very important lesson and my respect for the committed Head has stayed with me ever since. &#13;
&#13;
Working for Tenants and Residents &#13;
In the early 1970s many architects while working in offices were also providing free design advice and alternative schemes to tenants and residents groups faced with unacceptable redevelopment proposals. This work was in stark contrast to how they were earning their living during the day, but it taught both sides the benefits of having a design service available to and accountable to the people who used buildings.    &#13;
I was working for tenants in Newham while during the day I worked for BDP. BDP incidentally was a very good firm whose idealistic founding partner Grenfell-Baines stated it should be multi-disciplinary and fully involve and reward its staff. (3Rs, Responsibility, Recognition and Reward) (These ideas subsequently influenced the NAM Public Design Group’s proposals). &#13;
&#13;
At that time, my wife Ursula was working in a Community Development Project in Canning Town. Through her I became involved with West Ham tenants.&#13;
&#13;
Most private firms were not so good as BDP for salaried staff, hence salaried architects desire for change. The RIBA was seen to be a mouthpiece for private Architectural Practice.&#13;
&#13;
These ideas became more widespread throughout the profession both amongst salaried architects and teachers in schools of architecture.  At the same time, new young Labour councillors, who had emerged from tenants’ struggles, were beginning to be elected and this encouraged the development of NAM ideas in councils, for example Haringey.  	&#13;
&#13;
Architects Revolutionary Council (ARC) &#13;
While working in BDP, we used to occasionally visit the AA in nearby Bedford Square at lunchtimes. There was also an AA Studio in Percy Street near the BDP office. There I met the tutor, Brian Anson and his students. Brian had established with his students the Architects Revolutionary Council (ARC). &#13;
&#13;
They talked to us about ARC’s proposal for a New Architecture Movement to develop ARC’s ideas and especially to take on the RIBA, ARC’s bête noir. They were trying to encourage sympathetic architects, teachers and students to attend an inaugural conference to establish the New Architecture Movement. After I talked to Brian about my interest in public design he asked me to make a presentation about a national design service at the proposed conference.&#13;
&#13;
In November 1975 an advert appeared in the architectural press inviting participants to attend the inaugural congress of a hitherto unheard of New Architecture Movement in the unlikely setting of Harrogate.  The congress, organised by ARC after discussion with sympathetic architects, brought together a considerable number of like-minded salaried architects and students.  &#13;
NAM was born&#13;
&#13;
The New Architecture Movement  &#13;
Harrogate is a very attractive and stylish former spa town in Yorkshire. No doubt ARC chose it for that reason. &#13;
I presented a paper on a National Design Service to the Congress. Apart from meeting many like-minded architects, the main thing I remember about the congress is the debate about the proposed structure for the New Architecture Movement.&#13;
&#13;
NAM Structure&#13;
ARC proposed that an elected Leader and committee should govern NAM. This resulted in an animated debate. The women at the meeting persuaded the men that the New Architecture Movement should be structured like the women’s movement; ie, groups of people interested in particular issues who would come together as necessary, not at the diktat of a higher body. In retrospect I think this was NAM’s great strength so we didn’t spend our time nit-picking as would inevitably have been the case if we had agreed to the centrally controlled body that ARC wanted. &#13;
&#13;
It was eventually agreed that NAM should be structured as local groups. There was also to be a liaison group, whose role was to coordinate the different campaign groups, deal with correspondence and arrange the next annual congress. Groups would report to each other through a magazine called SLATE. &#13;
&#13;
Liaison Group&#13;
I was involved in the first London liaison group and in due course we got a grant from the Rowntree Foundation, which enabled us to set up an office in 9 Poland Street. &#13;
&#13;
During the first few months after Harrogate, we discussed how NAM should develop. We drafted NAM’s objectives (attached) and organised our first meeting in May 1977 in Covent Garden to encourage more salaried architects to join.  Anne Karpf reported the event very favourably in Building Design.&#13;
Groups&#13;
The following campaign groups developed over time:&#13;
•	Alternative Practice &#13;
•	Education &#13;
•	Feminist Group &#13;
•	Professional Issues  (A number of us were elected to ARCUK to represent ‘unattached’ architects) &#13;
•	Public Design Group&#13;
•	SLATE &#13;
•	Trade Unions and Architecture&#13;
These groups, which were largely autonomous, worked across local groups to develop their ideas. They arranged their own conferences and reported through SLATE and annually to the NAM Congress. &#13;
Although I was involved in the liaison group and other groups, my main interest was in developing the ideas for a National Design Service. This eventually became the Public Design Group. It included one of Brian Anson’s AA students and architects and students from Sheffield and Nottingham. So we did a lot of travelling, usually meeting in Sheffield. &#13;
See separate report on how the Public Design Group evolved and how its ideas were eventually developed in Haringey.&#13;
&#13;
NAM’s ideas became more widespread throughout the profession both amongst salaried architects and teachers in schools of architecture. &#13;

The task was therefore to reform the practice of architecture in local councils to provide an accessible and accountable design service. The Public Design Group proposed reforms to the practice of architecture in local councils to provide a design service accessible and accountable to local people and service users. The following 6 Interim Proposals were developed which were later initiated and implemented in Haringey Council 1979-1985 by NAM members. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

To achieve an effective Public Design Service the NAM Public Design Group proposes local authority design and build teams which are area based and which will be accountable to users and tenants.&#13;
We suggest the following interim proposals which are feasible now and which create the potential for further change :&#13;
: LOCAL AREA CONTROL OVER RESOURCES.&#13;
x DESIGN TEAMS SHOULD BE AREA BASED INSTEAD OF FUNCTION BASED.&#13;
. AREA DESIGN TEAMS SHOULD BE MULTIDISCIPLINARY.&#13;
= JOB ARCHITECTS SHOULD REPORT DIRECTLY TO COMMITTEE.&#13;
. ABOLISH POSTS BETWEEN TEAM LEADER AND CHIEF ARCHITECT.&#13;

ISTHISTHEEND 2&#13;
After four years of organising we find ourselves with a disappointingly low membership in asingle London Branch within TASS that owes more to the initial sympathies of the now retired National Organiser than to our size or financial contribution.&#13;
Our small membership is standing in the way of further recruitment and is placing the burden of branch organisaiton onto the shoulders of too few people to&#13;
engage in the scale of programme required for an affective recruitment drive. Though TASS have to date, been generous with financial support, the effect&#13;
and ideas for promoting trade unionism within architect's offices have always&#13;
had to come from within the Branch. This has tended to result in all recruitment activities and events, no matter how successful in themselves, ultimately&#13;
failing through not being followed up.&#13;
Our present situation makes it imperative that a drastic change takes place&#13;
in our organisation to permit future growth rather than continued stagnation&#13;
and ultimate dissolution. A move to under the wing of STAMPis the logical step&#13;
we must now make. Such a move should involve members moving en mass rather than transferring individually. In this way we can have a say in the conditions of our new home. (Unofficial discussions suggest that this would be acceptable to both TASS and STAMP).&#13;
Once in STAMP wewould have:&#13;
A branch of 600 members of which 20% are ‘architects’ in the London area.&#13;
This would double our potential activists and give us a membership stake&#13;
in an overall union that we do not have at present. This is important in any union where branch representation and funds are proportional to membership figures.&#13;
a parent Union more sympathetic to our environmental concerns and more susceptible to revitalisation from within than TASS has ultimately proved.&#13;
A parent Union who have as great a voice within the Construction industry as the RIBA and who will be relied upon by the next Labour Government for advice on the future of this industry.&#13;
An organisation with closer links to local authority planning and building departments than we have previously possessed. Such a liaison is essential to our drive within the private sector.&#13;
an organisation within the Construction industry that embraces the other disciplines of building designers that we have always aimed to recruit but have never been able to.&#13;
An undispute claim that we are the sole Union for everyone employed within the building design private sector.&#13;
If you support trade unionism for all staff who work in building design offices, then you must attend an extraordinary meeting called by the Branch Council for Tuesday 26th May, 1981. A motion has been tabled&#13;
by the Branch Council with the last two Branch Chairman as proposer and seconder.&#13;

This Branch believes that the cause of trade union organisation in the&#13;
building design sector can be best advanced by UCATT and thereby calls upon&#13;
all its weibers and supporters to move en bloc into a revitalised white collar section of UVATT.&#13;

&#13;
In Defence of the Unattached&#13;
(/430 words approx. )&#13;
q If you're an architect, the chances are that you're a member of the RI BA. But have you ever thought seriously about why you joined? Did you join it as a gesture of soli±rity with the profession? Did you join as soon as you could after you qualified, in celebration of your&#13;
status? Did you join it for the library, for the bar , or perhaps for the half-&#13;
price lecture tickets? Or were you terrorised into believing, as some still d), that if you wanted to join later, you'd be forced to pay/ half of all your bæk subscriptions since you qualified?&#13;
Whatever the reasons, the vast majority of architects join. In 1985, RIBA membership&#13;
	numbered , out of a total 	UK- registered architects - that's €+. 7209%&#13;
Most of the remainder , whether they like it or not, are  in ARCUK by the&#13;
Q../ectnd Co u.nco'&#13;
	Unattached group. Compared with the fully-funded operations of the Institute,	John S&#13;
4 Allan and his colleagues have an uphill struggle. Notmy pays a subscription to the&#13;
Unattached. It's a case of representation without taxation. Allan cited three categories of Unattached - the conscientious objectors, those who don't need to joi ecause their boss, partner or spouse is a member , and the apathetic.&#13;
Can one articulate apathy? Are there in any case really all those seasoned professionals&#13;
out there who, though assiduous in pursuit of lheir clients' interest, just couldn't care less Oe.ecl•.kb.-ch.we...l when it comes to professional matters? I talked separately to Allan nd, in contrast,&#13;
R&amp;'ick Gradige, noted eccentric and one- man band.&#13;
John 'Allan has been a ARCUK Councillor for 10 years. 'Until we became i volved,'he said, IARCUK become more or less taken over as a sort of RIBA subcontractor.&#13;
- l -&#13;
&#13;
ago ARCUK 	gave statutory status to the RI BA Co&amp;. There's no earthly reason why it should. And there's no reason why people who are not members of the RIBA should be 	bæause they're registered un±r ARCUK to observe the 	of an institute to which they (hn't belong.'	&#13;
Gradige on the other hand is the most isolated of conscientious objectors. In his own words he is 'totally disenfranchised... not even attached to the Unattæhed. i He laughed heartily when I 	him why he wasn't a member 'When I left the AA,' he explained, l it didn't strike me that it was going to serve a very useful purpose for me, and having qualified, 1• didn't bother to join. I (fini t particularly like the RIBA, and as you k.now I think it was at that time very much a bosseS union. That was in those happy 	before one was oneself in the position of being a boss:&#13;
The figuræ just chn•t exist to make it easy to make any wcurate observalions about the 2&gt;9 1'&#13;
But it's probably true that most of them are salaried. Despite - or perhaps beause of - the efforts of the SAOs, the icEa that the RIBA is still a club for 'boss architects' seems hard to shift. Even so, many hold off from coming out too strongly against the Institute because they look forward to being bosses themselves one 	To do otherwise would be about as 	as a group of militant grubs protesting against the activities of beetles.&#13;
When Gradige to set up on his own, RIBA rules for welcoming recalcitrants into the fold were stricter than they are todö/. 'They said, "Oh yes, we l d be ±lighted to have you, as long as you pay half of your entire back subscription" - which would have ached up to thousands of pounds! I know whether or not they' still have that requirement. But anyhow, that totally put me off them for oü.&#13;
Many principals join because they believe that the Clients' AWisory Service will get them work. Allan, who is in the firm Avanti Architects, is unimpressed. 'Having been&#13;
&#13;
�&#13;
part of a prætice that was part of the CAS, I'm not aware of its eve havin any work, or that it was particularly active on the practice's behalf e are in the RIBA&#13;
Directory, and I (hn l t think wea ve ever 	any jobs through that.' After a moment's thought, he 	his statement: 'l think we were once asked to fix up a gay bar on the Ball's Pond&#13;
'&#13;
RCA&#13;
Ro&amp;rick sæmed similarly sceptical. 'Well I suppose it's jobs for the boys; he said. 'If the RIBA represented 1 of architects then it would be perfectly proper , because they could hand out the jobs to the right person. But in many cases the right architect is just the sort of person who wouldn't be a member of the RI DA. j&#13;
In his view , the RIBA already enjoys an unfair  thanks 10 a longstanding misunderstanding amongst the public: 'It's alwoys narked me that people still think that I'm not really an architect, because one isn't on that 	list. The RIBA spends its entire time suggesting its a monopoly , and that every architect is a member. It 	its best to this on every occasion. And of course it's not true. The general public is deeply misled over this matter.&#13;
Perhaps of more practical effect for many than either the List of Members or the Clients' AWisory Service is what Allan 	the Rotary Club factor: 'Out in the real backwoodlands where the marketplace is a perhaps a little bit more crude than it is in 	and the South-East, it tes seem to be a lot more significant than it 	here. I have bæn to plæes where I've been asked to give a talk e*e.en about I Unattæhed' issues, where if you were people who were in the RIBA. &#13;
Allan said that one of those things he has tried particularly to tackle has been the assumption that non-members of the RIBA are somehow less qualified. 'Quite a number of&#13;
&gt;&#13;
24 Ju/v / 986 ND. re/ (01.) 354 2991&#13;
discriminatory job &#13;
the RIBAi s co&amp;, didn't that mean&#13;
that a member was now oblioa] to offer a higher stanchrd of service? Not in Allan's view.&#13;
'Read the  he said, 'and having d)ne so, deci± for yourself whether the standard of&#13;
conduct  by ARCUK is or is not higher than the Code.' According to Allan, a 'performance specification' approach is likely to be more effective than the RIBAs complex set of rules. 'For example; he said, l uncbr the ARCUK cc&amp;, it is that you could be penalised for incompetent prætice, whereas that is not covered by the RIBA C&amp;kou're only to carry out your duties faithfully. In the case of&#13;
ARCUK, you're obliged to carry them out faithfully and conscientiously&#13;
Perhaps surprisingly, Allan was philosophical about the existence of the Institute: 'All sorts of vocational market sectors will have professional associations; he said. • That's more&#13;
&#13;
sake of it.&#13;
'These institutions exist,' he went on. 'They're probably nineteenth century cultural products, but there they are. And people who want to join them can join them. What I think is not acceptable is if statutory bodies such as ARCUK which were set up with a fairly clear&#13;
&#13;
brief from Parliament to æhieve certaikobjectives are, if you like, by the RIBA either benignly or otherwise - as a means of promoting RIBA policy.'&#13;
Gradioe's essential objection was more personal. 'The trouble with the RIBA is that it's impossible to move them by resigning or d)ing anything else. They're such a solid lump of&#13;
professional nonentities. I work as an architect, and 1 1 m much more interested in being an&#13;
&#13;
&#13;
architæt than all this damn nonsense about professionalism - he seemed to remember something - anyhow, I'm Master Elect of the Art Workers' Ouild. That's much more important!'&#13;
But it was hard to know how to respond to eradigel s main argument: IAS you know, I call myself Gradige Architect. Everyone from Christopher Wren to Edwin Lutyens has tried to themselves Architect. NobO I know who's of any quality really is trying to call himself ARIBA&#13;
'Or Chartered Architect? I ventured. '...or Chartered Architect - a revolting expression!'o&#13;

It is &#13;
RIBA &#13;
I do believe that many newly qualified students simply join the RIBA out of a 'conditioned reflex' , assuming that in some way or other yo ave to to practise as an architect. The last moment to deal with this misinformation Is of course at Part 111, but then most of those running the Professional practice courses are themselves RIBA members who may not really understand the position anyway andk therefore almost bound to present the professional constitution from an R. I. B.A. viewpoint. It Is a mixture of ignorance and Inertia which suits the Institute fine.&#13;
Your figures aren't quite correct — see enclosed excerpt from ARCUK Annual Report. In fact Unattached numbers represent just over 30% of Rel. B, A. numbers, a proportion which has been rising steadily. (Over— seas architects are not counted).&#13;
This could confuse. The Unattached 'denomination' only has significance in the context of ARCUK. Our subscriptions' are thus in effect the annual Retention Fee which everyone must pay to remain on the Register.&#13;
Incidentally, judging from the more or less constant row about RIBA subs, I would hardly describe their operations as 'fully—funded — but that's only an Impression.&#13;
More recently, under untypical ly non—partisan chairmanship, ARCUK has correctly distingul{d its role from that of the RIBA in the matter of architectural education, and in so doing, made a valuable contribution the maintenance 	standards. This independent stance would&#13;
&#13;

Not quite so. ARCUK publishes the names and business addresses of all architects, and holds on computer the names of Unattached as such, From this it would be relatively easy to identify principals and salaried staff — If you had the time&#13;
7. The general Impression given In the article — In inverted commas or otherwise, I can't tell — is that not being a member of the RIBA Is a form of deviance. This reminds me slightly of the way the Tory party regard anyone who is not on owner—occupier.&#13;

Dear Kenneth Forder,&#13;
Re: A. ReCaUnKc -- Annual&#13;
In accordance with the requiret-aent, I append a few comments on the Draft Annual Report , in advance of Wednesday t s Council Meeting.&#13;
I hope these are of a.ssistance in final ising the report.&#13;

	JOHN ALLAN	Comments on Draft Annual Report. ARCUK 1986—87&#13;
&#13;
12 . 2nd Para. Suggest "It should be known by all registered persons that they are legally required to keep ARCUK informed • etc.&#13;
17 . No Indication of result, or whether this is still awaited.&#13;
20. First sentence misleadingly negative In tone. I would prefer after " • • • Standard." something like "has superseded a set of purely formal rules with a system of qualitative criteria"&#13;
Then after second sentence I would insert an additional sentence such as, "By contrast, application of the new Standard obliges those considering a case to examine the content of allegedly disgraceful conduct against the yardstick of Integrity as defined In the Standard and supported in Advice to Architects.&#13;
Then 4th sentence would start "As a result of this replacement. . etc "&#13;
Remainder of item 20. My personal view is that this account is slightly and unnecessarily biased towards the Discipline Committee, who — again in my personal opinion, and based only on the D.C. Chairman's 'visit' to Council — have still not really grasped the significance of the change and their increased obligations resulting from it.	(I think I voiced such feelings at the time).&#13;
The Impression given in this report, which may well be the true one, is that ARCUK f s disciplinary procedures are in a muddle. If so this is extremely serious and requires the most urgent attention, especially at a time when almost all 'Internal systems of disciplining — from the professions to the police force — are the subject of so much public misgiving. I hope this matter will be Item 1 on the P. P.C. 's agenda next session.&#13;
Incidentally, I think it would be appropriate to make reference to the work already done in systematising ARCUK t s review of conduct and discipline — I mean the guidance paper "Procedure, Precedents and Policy", which was after all Intended to address exactly the questions discussed above.&#13;
27/28 -&#13;
No mention of phasing out of ARCUK's recognition of overseas schools. I would be interested to know if any of those dealt with by the Reg. 27 Panel were applicants that would previously have been admitted via the t old ' route.&#13;
31	Last parae Economical with the truth? The E . E. C. Directive may well be more onerous than the current de facto procedure fo r recognition, but I am not convinced that the 1931 Act could be properly construed as requiring anything else but a 'direct involvement in the accreditation of qualifications.&#13;
33. No indication of the outcome — were the Board's conclusions too controversial to risk reporting, or too uninteresting to merit it?&#13;
Appendix 4&#13;
Notes to Accounts - Item 11 .&#13;
Any particular reason why unattached election was so much cheaper this year. (Presumably nothing to do with the fact I was not a candidate) .�</text>

	73 Hallam Street London WI N 6EE	Tel: 01-580 5861&#13;
Registrar: Kenneth J. Forder M.A.&#13;
DH/CK/101/85&#13;
Dear&#13;
E.c. DIRECTIVE&#13;
You will know that, at its meeting on June 19th Council agreed to set up a Steering Group to analyse the Directive docment and advise Council on its implications and implementation. The Steering Group has begun a series of meetings and will make its first report to Council on October 16th.&#13;
In the meantime, it has become clear that ARCUK, as an established statutory body, will be the principal agency through which Central Goverment will operate in the implementation of the Directive. Its terms, when we have sorted out exactly what they are, will be binding as far as ARCUK is concerned, but will have no statutory force on professional institutions or societies whether these are constituent bodies of ARCUK or not.&#13;
Nevertheless, I am sure you will want to be kept informed about developments and these may well have a bearing on decisions to be made within your organisation. If you have any particular points you would like to raise may I suggest you do so through a representative on ARCUK who can speak at the October meeting — or if it is a matter for the Steering Group to consider before that date, by writing directly to the Registrar.&#13;
Yours sincerely&#13;
Professor D Hinton&#13;
Chairman&#13;
