Event text

Premiere! The event series Architects, not Architecture will hold its first edition in England. Every architect knows famous buildings – but do you know the people, who designed and built them? Who are they and how did they become what they are today? You will find the answers, and a lot more, at the Royal Institution (Ri) on October 24.

The concept has already inspired hundreds of people in different cities. Architects, not Architecture or “AnA” – as the name suggests – provides a glimpse on great personalities of architecture. The event series is not about the projects of the architects, but about them, their professional backgrounds and formative individual experiences that shaped the projects we all know. This provides new perspectives and inspires on a more personal level. Come to the Royal Institution and discover a new kind of event series.

On October 24, three relevant British architects will talk about their personal experiences and important creative periods in their lives and, as always at “AnA“, not a word may be lost about their projects:

The three of them are well-known for their significant work. Sadie Morgan believes in the importance of connecting design with a place and people. Alongside being the Director and Co-founder of RIBA Stirling Prize-winning practice dRMM, she is widely involved in a number of advisory roles. These include being the Chair of the Independent Design Panel for High Speed Two, Commissioner and Chair of the National Infrastructure Commission Design Group and Mayor’s design advocate for the Greater London Authority’s ‘Good Growth by Design’ agenda. Jonathan Sergison is particularly interested in urban questions and the changing conditions of the contemporary European city. He discusses the role housing might play in this changing context. More specifically, he has addressed this through writing, teaching, and practice. Sergison Bates architects have earned a reputation as one of the UK’s leading architectural practices by successfully engaging with all dimensions of architectural and urban design. The architect, artist, and author Ian Ritchie is renowned for research and its innovative perspectives, having more than 30 World Firsts in architectural geometry, engineering, and material technique. For Ian Ritchie “the democratic value of progress can only have a long-term life when it grafts itself onto the strong metaphorical stem of the human spirit – individually and collectively, our practice has always designed architecture to encourage and sustain this strength”. Look forward to exciting talks and discussions with our inspiring guest speakers. 

Doors open at 5:30 pm. The talks will start at 6:30 pm.

This event is kindly supported by our partners BoConceptJUNGFSB and Dornbracht
