The "Democracy in Design Act" aims to ensure that the design of public buildings in the United States consistently adheres to established architectural standards. Specifically, it directs the Administrator of General Services (GSA) to follow the principles outlined in the 1962 report titled "Guiding Principles for Federal Architecture" by the Ad Hoc Committee on Federal Office Space. To implement this directive, the bill requires the GSA Administrator to promulgate regulations within 180 days of the Act's enactment. These regulations will establish minimum standards for the design of public buildings and must be developed through a process that includes public notice and an opportunity for comment.
