Ace of Architecture (AOA) is a non-profit, multi-platform organization focused on architectural learning and resource sharing. Founded at the University of Toronto, AOA redefines architecture as not only a process of making but also a way of thinking, critiquing, and caring. Between 2018-2020, AOA became an essential resource for Chinese architecture students, offering numerous workshops, presentations, discussions, research projects, and online publications through its WeChat official account. These initiatives helped hundreds of students transition into architectural education, improve their skills, and explore career paths.

In 2020, AOA launched its WeChat platform to overcome pandemic-related challenges, publishing articles on faculty introductions, professional interviews, study planning, and student research. AOA also expanded its mission with the creation of GIFT, a professional platform for graduates, offering workshops and guidance to students globally.

Today, AOA is divided into four key Chambers:

• Facts: Provides practical information on courses, systems, resources, and career planning.
• Tea Party: Hosts weekly presentations and critiques for architecture lovers across North America and Europe.
• Competition: Engages students in architectural competitions to gain practical experience.
• Hypothesis: Focuses on architectural theory, history, and deeper research.

AOA serves as a collaborative space for students, fostering the growth of future architects while supporting their professional and personal development.
