The vai Vorarlberger Architektur Institut is an interface in the field of Baukultur*. We bring together architects, other design professionals and clients with craftspeople and actors from business, academia, the arts, culture and politics and address the issue of architectural quality through exhibitions, events and publications.

In cooperation with the publisher Edition DETAIL, our book Architecture in Vorarlberg will also be released in an English‑language edition in January 2026.

The vai's operational team runs the association's office, which is located in Dornbirn. We work interdisciplinarily and collaborate with numerous professionals and stakeholders from the fields of architecture and building culture, as well as from culture, art, education, business, and crafts.
