A Place to Call Home: Where we live and why|
Exhibition
16 February - 28 April
Gallery 1, 66 Portland Place
Enjoy a new RIBA exhibition, guest curated by Sarah Beeny, charting the story of the design and appeal of everyday homes in the UK. Through archival and original material, it explores the characteristics of a British obsession and the drivers that have shaped how and where we live - from late 18th century speculation to the present day via suburban expansion and post-war experiment.
