On Wednesday 11th June associate Adelina Fasan will give a lecture at ECE Architecture Studio in Worthing as part of the 'A piECE of their mind' Lecture Series. Adelina will explore how to design buildings that respond to complex urban and historic contexts, balancing scale, memory and meaning by looking at some of our buildings including the Master's Field Development for Balliol College in Oxford and Maggie's Centre Cambridge.
On May 14th as part of the Architecture Foundation 100 day Studio NMLA hosted a collective drawing event. At a time where people are physically separate, we were delighted to bring a large group together to draw. The event allowed a new level of participation in our studio’s collective drawing practice.
Participants were split into a series of ‘breakout rooms’, each led by someone from NMLA. A journey was narrated that encouraged people to draw themselves in the windows of their homes, then come to the street to clap and interact with one another, and finally to collectively design a public space. This narrative created a series of detailed, imagined scenes that have been combined into one colourful tapestry.
The event finished in unison with Thursday’s Clap for Our Carers, with the drawing revealed alongside a soundtrack by composer Kevin Pollard.
