K.ARCH Kingston Landscape + Architecture Society

Angela Ford of spoke on Wednesday about her Masters Thesis and recent exhibition at Stanley Picker Gallery “Raw Origins” and shared her knowledge of sustainable and natural materials of Britain.

Guests were able to experience the tactility of hempcrete and nettle fabrics from Angela’s growing collection of materials.

The Atrium was busy last with MArch students presenting their Intercrits.

We hope they all went well!

Don’t forget to send us your work to be featured on our page ✏️

We hope to see you in the atrium or online for our lecture this Wednesday! 📖

Christoph will identify and discuss specific ways in which we can learn from the Global South to tackle the global climate crisis through the lens of a current research collaboration with colleagues at CEPT University Ahmedabad and UAL London called ‘How To Build With Time’.

Our most recent REINTRODUCED lectures invited Tom Coward to discuss his PHD in practice through the lens of his practice AOC, and Thom Brisco and Will Guthrie to share their practices with us through their lecture, ‘Don’t I Know You?’

Did you manage to catch them?

Don’t worry if not, we have 5 more lectures starting again next Wednesday (2nd March)!

See you there!

In January 2020, the Megacrit is returning, revamped and rebooted.

A year of seismic political events has underscored the need for urgent action on tackling climate change and seen ambitious educators and students grapple with the topic of ecological architecture in adventurous new ways.

This event, organised by the London Architecture Schools Collective brings together students, tutors and guests to present and discuss each others research and design work.

We invite students from across all London’s architecture schools, to join us on Thursday 9th January 2020 at Coin Street Community Builders’ Bargehouse to explore ways of adapting and designing amid the climate emergency.

Participation is free and open to all students exploring ecological architecture. The deadline to sign up is Midnight 22 Dec 2019.

Write to [email protected] with any questions.
