The Open House Festival is led by a community of Londoners who, for the duration of the festival, run open days at buildings they either own, work or care for. Visitors can explore the full festival programme and all the different open buildings through the festival website, where they can sign-up and book onto tours of buildings or drop-in to openings and events.

Along with open buildings, the festival has a programme of urban walks and tours, and is one of the best ways to learn about London's history, architecture and the social significance of the diverse neighbourhoods of London.

Image: Make Space for Girls

In this webinar, we explore how women are shaping public spaces and influencing planning processes to prioritise accessibility and safety in urban areas.

Public spaces are an important measure for the success and wellbeing of cities, improving mental and physical wellness and providing accessible amenities for all. However, who are these spaces designed for and what role does gender play in their development?

Public spaces for young women and girls are less visible compared to the myriad of multi-use games areas such as skate parks and sports pitches that take up a significant place across our public realm. How can public spaces cater for the needs of different gender groups, and what can the industry do to make public spaces safer and more inclusive?

In this webinar, we explore how women are advocating for change and influencing planning processes to turn our public spaces into accessible, safe and multifaceted environments.

From initiatives with local communities, planning consultations, workshops and thought-leadership, we will hear about the projects that are empowering women's voices in shaping the future of our open spaces.

Hamza Shaikh is an architect at Gensler. With almost 30,000 followers on Instagram, he is also a major design world influencer: the conceptual drawings that he puts out into the world through social media - the fruits of his 'Architectural Imagination in the Digital Universe' - are reaching a wider audience and having a greater impact than he could ever have imagined.

For his exhibition at the Roca London Gallery, Hamza is is bringing drawings by his peers, who are experiencing a similar social media boom, into dialogue with historical precedents gathered from the Drawing Matter archive. From the elegant formality of Mies van der Rohe, to the painterly compositions of John Hejduk; from a precious hand-drawn plan by Le Corbusier, to a comical sketch by James Gowan, we see how the masters of the past also used drawing to demonstrate architectural imagination and how their work continues to influence this generation of creatives.

The exhibition groups drawings by technique and medium, an arbitrary categorisation, but one that allows comparisons to be made through time and by technique: Layers (collage, composites), Hands (whether drawn with a pen or digital tool), Fictions (images that tell stories), Metrics (those that involve a mathematical process) Abstract and Perspectives.

Exhibitor, architectural designer and artist Clement Luk Laurencio makes labyrinthine graphite on paper works of imaginary buildings and places that link him to the past, as he says: " Since the 18th century, visionary architects have popped up at key moments across history: Piranesi pushed printmaking to incredible ends, Boullée with his Cenotaph and architecture parlante, Tatlin and his Constructivist Tower for the Third International, Archigram and their projects in response to the sterility of modernism during the 60s: their works have defined their respective zeitgeists...through a drawing."

Hamza, who experiments with multiple drawing techniques, says: "I find that the most powerful imagery comes from experimenting with new technology and marrying that with traditional drawing concepts and techniques. Whilst architects are embracing the digital future, they also deeply respect the past. My work and this exhibition are very much an expression of that. The past is fleeting but always on our horizon; hence we named the exhibition 'Vanishing Points'".

"I find that the most powerful imagery comes from experimenting with new technology and marrying that with traditional drawing concepts and techniques. (...). My work and this exhibition are very much an expression of that. The past is fleeting but always on our horizon; hence we named the exhibition 'Vanishing Points'".

One of the unprecedented outcomes for architects of the social media phenomenon is that their work is now being seen by people far beyond the architectural profession. Exhibitor Eric Wong, for instance, was recently commissioned to create an entire digital world for a Netflix production, as a result of his work being spotted in the virtual world. As Hamza says: "architects are now becoming tech-entrepreneurs, user-experience specialists, set designers, writers and historians, filmmakers. Despite some of the failures of architectural education in preparing students for practice, the potential it offers for wider contribution is immense."

Niall Hobhouse, founder of Drawing Matter, says that one of the most exciting things about studying architectural drawing, is that its practitioners are invariably front-running technical evolution: "Drawing Matter works with the idea that any great building demands a great drawing. In the urgent need to express a powerful new concept, designers are always frustrated with the technology and conventions to hand. In this way, in Rome in the early 19th century, young architects from France (with paper and pencils) appear desperate for someone- anyone- to invent the camera; or Superstudio and OMA in the 70's (as they ripped pages from magazines and stirred their glue pots) had to wait fifteen years for the first Photoshop programmes. With any design process the radical thinking often happens in this gap between means and ends. Now that social media is itself in the mainstream of design, what do we guess might come next for the drawings - and for architecture itself?"

Free online webinar:

1. Aligning building-level LCAs with Scope 3 reporting

2. Understanding variances in LCA modelling tools and calculations

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Kick-off event for UKGBC's new project aiming to improve embodied carbon measurement and reporting in the built environment.
Following on from UKGBC's leading publication Embodied carbon practical guidance issued in 2017, and as highlighted more recently in the Whole Life Carbon Roadmap, accurate, consistent, and widespread embodied carbon reporting has become increasingly important to ensure meaningful and credible tracking of progress towards net zero carbon goals. Looking ahead, there's a need to continue building upon industry guidance to ensure that embodied carbon measurement is well understood, commonplace, and effective in driving industry change.

This webinar will introduce our latest project which aims to improve the clarity, consistency, and effectiveness of embodied carbon measurement and reporting. We will be joined by an expert panel who will outline the need for improved embodied carbon measurement and reporting within the industry and how this will help them with their own carbon measurement on projects. The webinar will also outline how to get involved in the production of the output through the Taskgroup with the Call for Applications going live afterwards.

The workstreams for this project could include:

1. Aligning building-level LCAs with Scope 3 reporting

2. Understanding variances in LCA modelling tools and calculations

Attend this Kick-Off webinar to find out more about the project scope and objectives and learn how you can be involved as part of the Task and Review Groups.
Who should attend
All built environment professionals with an interest in embodied carbon and how to effectively measure and report it. This event is open to UKGBC members and non members.
Why attend
Gain an understanding of embodied carbon measurement and learn how you can get involved in UKGBC's new project.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
Launch of UKGBC's latest report exploring key enablers in the necessary transformation of our industry towards an emerging circular and regenerative future.
When
Achieving a circular economy requires a fundamental systems-level change in our economy. All levels of government, industry, and civil society will need to rally behind the common goal to shift from our current extractive and wasteful linear economy towards a regenerative, circular one.

This new UKGBC report outlines the necessary transformation our industry must deliver. It explores key enablers needed to transition from our current business-as-usual towards an emerging future that is circular and regenerative.

Delivering these industry enablers should act as a tipping point in our mostly linear economic system, building a foundation upon which a circular economy across the built environment can become the default way of operating. Targeted and meaningful action by practitioners to demonstrate the art of the possible is vitally important, and this report sets out a multitude of actions that stakeholders can take to make this a reality.

Why attend
This webinar will launch UKGBC's new report and provide an overview of the key enablers needed for the transition to a circular economy. We will be joined by an expert panel who will share their perspectives and answer audience questions.

Who should attend

AJ Retrofit Live is a brand-new event centred around the Architects' Journal's well-established awards programme and editorial theme.

The AJ Retrofit Awards were established in 2010, in recognition of this rapidly growing sector while our climate-focused RetroFirst campaign - calling for system change and political reform - has changed the conversation about demolition and reuse of existing buildings since its launch in 2019.

This subject matter will be brought to life at Retrofit Live on November 23. This unique event will bring together architects, their built environment colleagues, developers, clients and lawmakers to identify the best retrofit and circular economy practices and discuss the transformational changes we need to see to upgrade the built environment in line with whole-life carbon principles.

In our launch year the focus is on hearing from inspirational individuals from across the industry and facilitating crucial conversations on this vital topic from those with the ability to make it happen. Retrofit Live will also feature a thriving exhibition area that complements these key messages and showcases cutting-edge solutions to support our mission.

We can't wait for you to join us at 155 Bishopsgate on November 23 and lend your voice to this unmissable conversation.

*Quote inspired by former president of the American Institute of Architects, Carl Elefante, who said: 'The greenest building is...one that is already built.'

An explosion of colour in the galleries, drinks in the courtyard and artist-designed flags flying down London's iconic Piccadilly - it's summer at the RA.

Summer at the RA is not just a time of year, it's the world's most joyful art experience. Run without interruption since 1769, the Summer Exhibition showcases art in all forms, from prints, painting, film and photography, to architectural works and sculpture by invited artists, Royal Academicians and emerging talent.

After two years in winter, it's back where it should be. The theme chosen by the exhibition's coordinator, Alison Wilding RA, is 'Climate'. Whether as a crisis or opportunity, or simply our everyday experience, it is an all-embracing subject.

Whether you're an experience seeker, a budding art collector or a culture-craving family, we know you'll find the art for you: the exhibition features two rooms of prints selected by Grayson Perry RA, a structure made of elephant dung bricks, and new work by the Singh Twins. Outside this year is a large-scale immersive installation bringing nature and water to the courtyard, by Spanish artist Cristina Iglesias.

Most of the works are available to buy, and proceeds from the Summer Exhibition directly support the exhibiting artists and the RA's charitable work, including training the next generation of artists in the Royal Academy Schools.
Our Friends preview days take place on 18 June, 10am-9pm and 19 and 20 June, 10am-6pm. Download our large print guide. This exhibition contains some adult content. Please contact us for more information.

Tickets £20-22 (including donation). Concessions available. For the best experience, book ahead.

12:30 - 18:00

This NLA On Location conference presents the transformation of Brent Cross

Brent Cross Town is a new £7 bn, 180-acre park town in north London being brought forward by Argent Related. This pioneering mixed-use, net zero carbon town is underpinned by core values of social connectivity, environmental sustainability, and health and wellness. With 6,700 exceptional new homes and modern flexible workplaces for over 25,000 employees all set around 50 acres of lush green parks & playing fields, and complemented by exceptional indoor and outdoor sports and wellness facilities, Brent Cross Town is a new park town for future London.

Vital to the masterplan of Brent Cross Town are its four pledges; to be a net zero carbon town no later than 2030; to be a place where all can flourish; to be the place in London to participate in sport and play; and to enhance connections. This underpins Brent Cross Town's aspiration to be a true 15-minute town, with all the amenities residents, workers and visitors need available within walking distance. With a new high street bringing together well-known and independent shops, cafes and restaurants, complemented by eight new public squares, wide pedestrian boulevards and landscaped parks, Brent Cross Town is designed to meet the needs of people's changing lifestyles and more flexible ways of living and working in London.

As part of the neighbourhood's commitment to be a net zero carbon town by 2030, it has partnered with Vattenfall, the Swedish Government-owned power company which is one of the most advanced energy providers in the world, to create a state-of-the-art district heat network that will deliver affordable, reliable, low carbon heating and hot water to all at Brent Cross Town.

This NLA On Location conference presents the transformation of Brent Cross Town, its inspiring approach to enabling new ways of living and working, and the masterplans' contribution to the overall wellbeing and economic development of the borough.

Known for his independent spirit, Kawanabe Kyōsai (1831-1889) is among Japan's most important master painters. Witty, energetic and imaginative, his art continues to influence numerous artistic styles today, from manga to tattoo art.

Overlooked for decades, particularly compared to his earlier counterparts, Hokusai and Hiroshige, Kyōsai is now celebrated for his ability to bridge popular culture and traditional art.

Having initially studied under ukiyo-e artist Kuniyoshi, he combined his subsequent academic training to create his own revolutionary style, creating images from the terrifying and awe-inspiring, to the sweet and endearing.

Drawing from one of the finest collections of the artist's work in the world, this exhibition brings together highly finished paintings, woodcut prints and illustrated books, as well as impromptu paintings ( sekiga) created at sometimes raucous calligraphy and painting parties ( shogakai).

This event will explore how material passports can support circular construction and meet with peers in the built environment value chain to support opportunities to grow innovation and collaboration across industry.
When

5:30 pm - 8:00 pm
Where
The City Centre, 80 Basinghall Street, London, EC2V 5AG
View map

Join us for an evening of discussions and networking at The City Centre , where we will hear from guest speakers on the role materials passports can play in supporting a circular and regenerative city.

Current construction and demolition practices are not circular, and accounts for around one-third of global material consumption and waste. By treating buildings and infrastructure as 'materials banks ' and leveraging them as sources of valuable, high quality materials , that can be easily dismantled, recovered , and reused, we can better support a circular construction industry. Materials passports can help enable this by documenting data of materials used in a product or construction, increasing the visibility of materials as an added value and confidence for reuse.
Agenda & Speakers:
17:30 - 18:00 Arrivals, welcome drinks
18:00 - 19:00 Materials passports - panel discussion
19:00 - 20:00 Networking
Drinks and nibbles will be provided

Ben Cartwright - Consultant, Strategic Advisory, BRE

More speakers TBC

Who should attend
Any built environment stakeholder interested in circular construction, including but not limited to: investors, developers, local authorities, designers, advisory services, contractors, and product manufacturers .
Background
Circular Construction in Regenerative Cities (CIRCuIT) is an EU-funded Horizon 2020 project brin g ing together 31 ambitious partners across the entire built environment chain in Copenhagen, Hamburg, Helsin k i Region and Greater London. This four-year project aims to bridge the implementation gap between theory, practice and policy and showcase how circular construction approaches can be scale d and replicated across the UK and Europe, to support the creation of regenerative cities.

London has always seemed big enough and international enough to pull people into itself, to attract and accommodate people from around the world. I think that's very generous and today, at the W Lunch, there was a real feeling of a community from London embracing and supporting women from lots of different countries.

Talk

Wednesday 27 April 2022
18:30 - 20:30

An in-person presentation, hosted by BDP, of current projects that champion integrated neighbourhoods and collaborative living. They present co-habitable living amongst inter-generational communities encouraging sustainable futures.

The frequency of integrated living and mixed-use spaces is increasing; the chance to live, work, play and rest collectively across neighbourhoods. Multi-generational living has been around as long as humanity has existed, where older generations support younger generations learning and growing from one another. There is a strong opportunity for enrichment of lives, fostering community feelings of social interaction and togetherness.

Encouraging these connections, healthy living and inclusive activity, uplifts communities to progress positively; tackling key issues of isolation and loneliness, heightened in recent years.

A catalyst for sustainable advancement of local economies, increased demands post-covid for healthy spaces focus on wellbeing for the neighbourhood. Co-living developments are an attractive choice for users, local authorities, and investors alike, because of this accessibility and flexibility. Now is the time to actively facilitate and put the infrastructure in place, to adopt adaptable community living.
