Each week architects will reveal what it takes to design and deliver an inspiring and impactful building, followed by a live interactive Q&A session.

The events will be hosted by a member of the RIBA’s Awards Group who visited the buildings, capitalising on their first-hand knowledge and appreciation of the project.
