UK Architects Face Uncertainty in EU Post-Brexit

摘要

WHEN the United Kingdom left the European Union on January 1, the country's architects lost the blanket right to work across continental Europe. An epoque in which British architects worked freely at the heart of the continent-projects such David Chipperfield Architects' renovation of the Neues Museum in Berlin and Zaha Hadid's bravura design for the MAXXI museum in Rome-was suddenly over. Now British architects are dependent on regulations within each nation to allow them to work in Europe. Despite the trade negotiations that took place between officials in Brussels and London throughout 2020, no specific agreement on the reciprocal recognition of professional services was reached, and individual countries have the right to treat UK credentials as "rest of the world" qualifications.
