T R A J E C T O R I E S  TALK SERIES | THURSDAYS from 6PM GMT

A new series of talks inviting architecture graduates to reflect on their time as students and their exciting next steps. Each week two speakers will explore personal creative aspirations, ideas and agendas, and present the somewhat unexpected trajectories of their early careers. Looking forward to seeing you all there! 

Sharil recently graduated from The Bartlett School of Architecture, where he conducted research on rethinking sustainable and collective methods of design. His graduate project, “One Tree Manual”, was awarded the RIBA 2020 Bronze medal as well as the AJ Student’s Sustainability Prize. He is currently working as a Part 1 Architectural Assistant at Rogers Stirk Harbour + Partners in London.  

Rob is a Part II Architectural Assistant working for Piercy & Co in London. He completed his BA at the University of Liverpool and then studied for his MArch at the University of Westminster. Graduating in 2020, Rob won the RIBA Silver Medal for his project “Devil’s Valley Geothermal Co-operative”.  

 

Huge congratulations to Robert Beeny from MArch DS16 on winning the RIBA President’s Silver Medal 2020!

The School of Architecture + Cities is delighted to announce that Robert Beeny, MArch student from Design Studio 16 won this year’s RIBA President’s Silver Medal for his project Devil’s Valley Geothermal Co-operative.

This project is situated in an area of Tuscany, Italy known as the Devil’s Valley, which had become known for its production of renewable geothermal energy over the past century. To protect the livelihood of local communities relying on that energy source, Robert proposed a new rural self-build development, powered by a geothermal well, with a pipeline and manufacturing spaces cascading down the valley landscape.

Huge congratulations to Robert and his tutors Anthony Boulanger, Stuart Piercy and Callum Perry from DS16 on this amazing achievement!
