OPEN 2020: School of Architecture and Cities Virtual Degree Show | Launch: Thursday, July 2 from 6pm to 9pm

Exhibition continues online from Friday, July 3 to Wednesday, September 30, 2020

OPEN 2020 is a virtual exhibition of projects that reflect the varied design approaches of the School’s diverse students and staff, and our place at the heart of London.

Projects explore architecture at all scales, from door-handles to territories, with generosity, wit and verve. Not all of the projects quite work – but then they shouldn’t. Architecture school is a place for experimentation.

OPEN 2020 exhibits all manner of hand and digital drawings, models, films, and prototypes in a virtual setting.

Please join us online for the opening night, or at any time in the following weeks, to revel in the unpredictable, the challenging and the entertaining.
