What's On

​Comparing the design methods of two of the most highly recognised architects of the 20th century this exhibition offers a renewed examination of their iconic architectural schemes proposed for the same site in the city of London. Exhibition extended until Sunday 20 August.

Architects KHBT designed Un-veiled as part of the launch of RIBA North. Walk through, beyond and within iconic buildings across the north.

​The opening exhibition at RIBA North will consider Liverpool’s long, often maverick, history of architectural ambition, its willingness to take risks and consider audacious schemes – a trait which has ultimately resulted in the dramatic and celebrated skyline we see today.

Free architectural workshops and an opportunity to create a new temporary art installation at Fountains Abbey & Studley Royal.

Part sculpture, part architectural installation, all play. The Brutalist Playground is a 2015 RIBA commission by Turner Prize winners Assemble and artist Simon Terrill, exploring post-war design for play.

The three selected 1:1 installations to be created at 66 Portland Place this Summer are by Max Dewdney Architects, Merrett Houmøller Ltd, and MMAS. These installations will occupy unexpected spaces within RIBA's HQ and question our shared boundaries on global, local and domestic scales.

This Summer, for the first time, Beyond Borders extends to RIBA North where you can explore the interactive 1:1 installation by Doing Bits Studio in the City Gallery.

​The exhibition “hautnah” shows - in schematized images - details of completed projects by JSWD Architects. Individually tailored solutions are the result of a precise site response to functions and needs analysis - producing structures that offer a protective, intelligent and efficient “outer shell”, which will also serve to tell the developer’s story.

​RIBA North West is hosting a series of talks across July and August aimed at providing architects and graduates in the region with inspiration from a range of award-winning national and international speakers.

​A presentation of photographs of architectural projects and their inspiration by Alison and Peter Smithson - champions of the Brutalist style and architects of many University of Bath buildings.
