transforming_tradition_out_with_the_new_in_with


Panellists debate whether architects should preserve the past or if it’s time for a housing revolution.

In a country where streets of terraced houses are boarded up for demolition in one city, but sold for over a million pounds each in another, panellists debate whether architects should preserve the past or if it’s time for a housing revolution.

Speakers include Elizabeth McKellar (Open University) + Dan Cruickshank (BBC Historian), Jamie Fobert (Jamie Fobert Architects).

This event is part of the exhibition 'At Home in Britain: Designing the House of Tomorrow'.

Venue: Royal Institute of British Architects, 66 Portland Place, London, W1B 1AD
