What's On

Following on from the success of Architecture Leeds 2018, RIBA Yorkshire and the Leeds Society of Architects (LSA) are proud to present Leeds Festival of Architecture 2019 - an exciting line up of talks and events across June and July.

Join us for an evening of talks at St George’s Bristol to discover the story behind the new extension of this celebrated concert hall. Designed by Patel Taylor, Project Architect George Ferrari and Lead Engineer Claire Smith of BuroHappold will present the concepts, drivers and design evolution of the project, alongside a client perspective from the venue’s Chief Executive, Suzanne Rolt.

Join us at RIBA for the next PiP seminar series, on Tuesday 2 July 2019, where we will be discussing transport and infrastructure design. This is a brand new topic so we are excited to hear and learn from three leading architects who will each explore a case study on a transport project they have worked on. All the UK based structures have their own identity, yet have managed to stand out within their urban environments, making a large impact on their social and economic infrastructure.

Hosted by Elena Marco, Head of Department Architecture and the Built Environment at UWE Bristol, our Great Debate brings together built environment professionals and future professionals to hear, discuss and question our panel of experts; and to provide intelligent thinking for the agencies and authorities tasked with leading our cities sustainability and growth.

Spend a day with local artist Nick Andrew on a sketch-tour of the New Art Centre at Roche Court to seek out and capture unique settings, beautiful views and interesting gems across the park, with glimpses of the house, the orangery and sculptures.

Join us for a tour of The Catalyst with presentations from GSSArchitecture and Bowmer + Kirkland.

Leadership requires agility and flexibility in responding to change at different levels – fluctuations in project volume and practice finances, as well as long term trends impacting on the profession. Find out how practice leaders set up to adapt to change, and how to lead people through a process of change.

Join RIBA Cornwall as we celebrate the summer in Cornwall with our our pan-professional networking event on the Fal River and Carrick Roads.

Calling on all previous delegates of Future Leaders to celebrate their career progression with a complimentary social evening.

New Ways of Working will explore how digital design and fabrication, new procurement models and a culture of collaboration impact on architectural practice, enable better project outcomes - in terms of quality, efficiency and social value - and create business opportunities.
