​An exhibition on Rome - a first step towards the re-threading of an important tradition

​Great British Buildings gives you an exclusive look at some of the this year’s RIBA award winning buildings in London. Join the architect for a one off architectural tour as they reveal the stories behind the building, what inspired them and what makes their building an RIBA Award winner.

​This commission anchors around the work of British-Argentinian artist Pablo Bronstein, and his exploration of ubiquitous neo-Georgian developments as an exemplar of a genuine British vernacular, through new work and the RIBA Collections.

​The RIBA has commissioned emerging London-based architects APPARATA (Nicholas Lobo Brennan & Astrid Smitham) to design a site-specific installation in the entrance to the RIBA’s landmark building at 66 Portland Place.

​This exquisite building for meditation is found in the midst of the Suffolk countryside. Although predominantly inward facing around courtyards it connects to the landscape beyond with views from shared communal rooms and bedrooms much as a monastic settlement might.

Take a guided tour of our Grade II* listed headquarters.

​To celebrate the opening of the RIBA commission, A Hall for Hull, for UK City of Culture 2017, Chile-based architects Pezo von Ellrichshausen will discuss their distinct take on their work as ‘architectonic art’.

​This is an ambitious project that set out to be the first Passivhaus office building in the UK, to source low-carbon materials locally and explore the idea of a contemporary vernacular.

​This year’s RIBA London Awards saw a record number of winning entries. To reflect the breadth of exceptional schemes selected by this year’s juries, RIBA London is pleased to present a Great British Buildings lecture series in addition to this year’s building tours. Throughout Autumn we will be exploring four different building typologies: Housing, Education, Civic and Arts and Heritage.
