Architecture, as practiced in the Philippines during the
Spanish era, was not by virtue of an academic title.
There were no architectural schools in the country
and the only architects with academic degrees were
Spaniards. However, the first Filipino recorded architect was
Felix Roxas y Arroyo of Binondo, Manila.
The closest the Filipino could aspire to practice as an architect
was as Maestro de Obras or Master Builder. The first academic
school to train these maestros was the Escuela Practica y
Professional de Artes y Officio de Manila, founded by the
Spanish government in 1880. In 1900 the first private school
to offer an academic title for Maestro de Obras was the Liceo
de Manila.
From the early 1930s to the late ‘50s, associations of architects
came and went, but three of these survived until the early ‘70s.
These were: the League of Philippine Architects (LPA), the
Association of Philippine Government Architects (APGA), and
the Philippine Institute of Architects (PIA).
The profession of Architecture was given its first separate
statute on June 17, 1950 with the enactment of Republic Act
545, “An Act to Regulate the Practice of Architecture in the
Philippines.”
In December 1971 President Ferdinand E. Marcos officially
declared the second week of December as Nationwide
Architecture Week.
President Marcos issued PD 223 in June 1973 creating
the Professional Regulation Commission (PRC) with the
duty of regulating all the professions and accrediting only
one professional organization to represent each profession.
Recognizing the need to formally integrate, the three
architectural associations, APGA, LPA and PIA each appointed
three representatives to form the Panel of Negotiators in May
1973.
To implement the terms of integration agreed upon by the three
architectural organizations, a 15-man Ad-Hoc Commission was
authorized to prepare the Constitution and By-Laws of the
newly integrated association.
One year later, the respective Board of Directors of the three
organizations on December 12, 1974 unanimously approved
the Constitution and By-Laws. In order to effectively pursue
the objectives and perform its task and duties under the joint
resolution, the Ad-Hoc Commission was authorized to sit as
an Interim Board to administer, implement and coordinate the
various activities of the new organization until the first regular
Board of Directors and Officers was duly elected.
The new integrated society was called the United Architects
of the Philippines (UAP). Members of the three organizations
numbering a total of 1,300, automatically became members
of the UAP and during its first year, 700 members officially
registered for active membership.
ON MARCH 26, 1975 THE UNITED ARCHITECTS OF THE
PHILIPPINES REGISTERED WITH THE SECURITIES AND
EXCHANGE COMMISSION. UAP BECAME THE FIRST ACCREDITED
PROFESSIONAL ORGANIZATION WHEN ON MAY 12, 1975
THE PROFESSIONAL REGULATION COMMISSION ISSUED
CERTIFICATE NO. 001 TO THE UAP AS THE DULY ACCREDITED
PROFESSIONAL ORGANIZATION FOR ARCHITECTS IN THE
PHILIPPINES.
