The language of us

On Wednesday 25th April 2018 we hosted an event with the support of the BAA and RIBA, to explore and discuss working with the community in design, a common theme which is shared with the invited speakers participating in the event.

The event was attended by around 106 people, from a diverse range of backgrounds and interests.

Speakers included:

Yinka Danmole, Studio Danmole

Alessandro Columbano, Birmingham Co.Lab

Harbinder Birdi, Hawkins\Brown

Anna Parker, Intervention Architecture

For the event we created bespoke play structures, which were CNC fabricated plywood, a see-saw and rocking turtle form. The structures were intended to stimulate a playful atmosphere, to encourage engagement with the attendees, and also inject a support for working together in collaboration and creation.

Thank you to all who attended and contributed to the event!
