What's On

RIBA North, The Building Centre and RIBA Chartered Practice dRMM present Forest of Fabrication, an exhibition celebrating the possibilities and significance of modern timber architecture.

This display draws on the RIBA’s unique holdings to demonstrate both the range of Moholy-Nagy’s British work and the strong ties that he established with modernist architects in Britain.

On the centenary of the Bauhaus school, one of the most famous and influential design schools in modern history, this exhibition looks afresh at the birth of Modernism in Britain.

With new dates announced for 2020, visit the magnificent home of architecture and hear about the places and faces behind George Grey Wornum’s winning design for the RIBA on Portland Place. Hear about the RIBA’s 185-year history as our dedicated educators walk you through the design and evolution of our landmark art deco building.

​The annual RIBA President's Medals exhibition showcases the talent of students, nominated by schools of architecture across the globe for the RIBA Bronze, Silver, and Dissertation Medals. These are widely regarded as the most prestigious awards in architectural education worldwide.

Join us for a curator introduction to our new exhibition, 'Beyond Bauhaus: Modernism in Britain 1933-66'. This will take place in the RIBA Architecture Gallery on 21 January 2020.

RIBA joins forces with the cross-disciplinary campaign group Part W, to highlight and celebrate the work of overlooked female designers of the Modernist movement in Britain.

We don’t know what the UK’s relationship with the EU will be in December, but RIBA North East are bringing together some of the region’s experts to assess the economic situation, and to outline what we might expect in 2020 and beyond.

There is nothing new about terrorism in the UK and we have learned a lot from its history over the past 100 years and beyond. This seminar will demonstrate how good design can reduce opportunities for terrorist’s activity, as well as casualties should a terrorist attack occur. Using case studies and simulation, the session will discuss mitigation measures during concept and design stages.

As part of our Change The Record initiative we will be hosting a series of informal table talks called JEDI talks (just equality, diversity, inclusion). In this first session, you'll hear contributions from those on maternity leave, sole practitioners, large scale employers followed by lively debate and discussion on the issues raised.
