The New Zealand Institute of Architects (NZIA) is a membership-based professional body representing approximately 90 percent of New Zealands registered architects. Founded in 1905 under its first president, William Chatfield, the Institute operates through eight branches around the country under a president serving a two-year term, with day-to-day work carried out by an Auckland-based staff led by a chief executive. A 1911 pricing dispute briefly split off a rival Society of Architects, which dissolved in 1913 once the disagreement was resolved.
