Constructing Communities at The RIBA

21 Jun-4 Aug 2016

Overview

Architecture creates spaces for people to gather, socialise and communicate with each other. Does it have the power to involve people in active rather than passive experiences? Earlier this year, the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA) issued an open call, inviting ideas from its architect and student members that could create or encourage community activity. From 21 June until 4 August three of the open call submissions will transform into ambitious 1:1 installations, displayed outside and throughout the RIBA’s Art Deco landmark building at 66 Portland Place for the Institute’s summer showcase.
