About the course
Wednesday 27 July 2022, 11am to 4pm (in-person workshop)
For young people aged 15 to 18
Join us for this in-person creative architectural workshop and explore the use and impact of perspective in architectural drawings.
We will look at examples from RIBA’s vast collection of drawing books and discuss how artists and architects, past and present, has used linear perspective to represent architectural sites, 'lead the eye' or offer a particular, new view, on the built environment. You will be introduced to drawing in 1, 2 and 3-point perspective before putting what you have learnt into practice by individually and collectively creating your own, factual or fantastical, view of the RIBA headquarters building.
This creative architecture workshop is led by artist educator Marianne Holm Hansen for young people aged 15 to 18 years.
This workshop has been adapted from an online workshop of the same title.
About the workshop series
Our workshops and courses for ages 15 to 18 "skill up" teenagers who are thinking about studying architecture or design. Participants think critically, share their views on architecture and express themselves through creative practice. In past workshops, participants have learned how to work to an architectural brief, improve portfolios, develop architectural drawing skills using a variety of media (including digital drawing on iPads) and photography skills, and work individually and collaboratively to think about how to design sustainable and responsible architecture.
Based in London, mainly our HQ at 66 Portland Place, all participants must arrive by 11am. These workshops are led by professional educators and all materials are included in the ticket price, but lunch is not provided.
If you're under 18, tickets must be booked by a parent or guardian. Online booking in advance is essential and if we do not receive full registration information in advance of the event we cannot allow the participant to attend.
Workshop costs
- £48
- £36 for participants who qualify for free school lunch (proof required)
