OAI Anniversary !

OAI Anniversary !

Congratulations to the OAI – Ordre des Architectes et des Ingénieurs-Conseils – on 35 years of commitment to architecture and engineering in Luxembourg.

Thank you for this memorable celebration! More than 800 guests joined the OAI’s 35th anniversary event at the European Convention Center Luxembourg – a celebration of architectural and engineering excellence, cultural significance, and future visions.

A special highlight: the first-ever European joint conference of architects and engineers, organised by the OAI together with CAE, EFCA and ECEC*. Representing over 1.5 million professionals, the conference concluded with the adoption of the Luxembourg Declaration on Public Procurement – a strong joint commitment to better public procurement, design quality, long-term value and the principles of the New European Bauhaus.

Luxembourg’s Minister for Culture, Eric Thill, emphasised the importance of Baukultur in national policy. The declaration was presented to Yuriko Backes, Minister for Mobility and Public Works, by the presidents of all four organisations.

A retrospective film, powerful speeches by national leaders including Prime Minister Luc Frieden, and the presentation of Architecture deLUX – the new publication created with DOM Publishers – marked a major step in opening public dialogue on the quality of our built environment.

The OAI continues to grow as an institutional and cultural pillar. With initiatives like the Prix luxembourgeois de la critique architecturale, it paves the way for future-oriented architecture in Luxembourg and beyond.
