A conversation with Daniel Fügenschuh- ACE President
Why ARCH-E Matters
ADCs play a crucial role in shaping a high-quality built environment across Europe. They provide an accessible pathway for young and small architectural practices to gain recognition, build experience, and compete on merit — no matter their size, location, or market reach.
ARCH-E strengthens this pathway by promoting fair, transparent and cross-border competition opportunities while supporting practices that face barriers in accessing Europe-wide projects.
