BNI
Beroepsvereniging van Nederlandse Interieurarchitecten
The BNI is the organisation for registered interior architects in the Netherlands. The professional titles of architect, town planner, landscape architect and interior architect are protected by law in the Netherlands.
Only individual registered in the Architects Register are authorized to use one of those titles. It is only the title that is protected, not the profession as such. The Architect’s Register (Stichting Bureau Architectenregister, abbreviated as SBA) is the registering authority for architects, town planners, landscape architects and interior architects in the Netherlands. The SBA is also appointed as the competent Authority in the Netherlands for all matters concerning the implementation and administration of the provisions of the Architects Directive of the EU.
BNI provides supporting services for its members in a range of fields, including legal issues and education.
