In order to increase the standard of building culture, the architects' presence by the implementation of generally accepted principles, including particular measures (eg. architectural competition), is crucial. The architect can act in different roles/positions, which is reflected, in particular, by the phenomenon of town/city architects. It is great that the number of local political representations caring for a high-quality built environment is increasing, but municipalities often have unrealistic qualification prerequisites on architects interested in working in public administration. The purpose of this project is to thoroughly analyse the current situation regarding the number of architects and their qualifications in the Czech Republic and to confront that with the need for institutional capacity within the public administration.
