2025 Practice + Design Conference

The annual event attended by over 500 AIA members, allied members, and industry professionals is a yearly testament to the vitality of Colorado's design community and 2025's edition promises to be yet another milestone moment! THE POWER OF is an invitation to explore and to act. The power of architecture goes beyond the built environment—it's the power to influence policy, shape processes, build stronger communities, and challenge the forces that define our built environment. In a time of both challenge and opportunity, we ask: How are you using your power? Are you ready to lead, or content to react? Together, we'll connect with others who are engaging with changing forces—policy, technology, climate, community—and explore how design can be a proactive tool of influence and aspiration for the future.
