Our event for Glasgow Doors Open Days Festival 2016

As this is the Year of Innovation, Architecture and Design, for Glasgow Doors Open Days Festival 2016, we will be welcoming visitors to our studio to show where and how we work.

Known for award-winning projects such as the National Museum of Scotland, Mareel Cinema & Music Venue, and Culloden Battlefield Visitor Centre, we use models as part of the design process to develop and explain our ideas.

 For this event we will be exhibiting our extensive model collection, and giving visitors the chance to learn more about the practice and our projects from members of our team. Visitors will also have the opportunity to make their own model building from Plasticine, which will become part of a large model city that is constructed over the course of the day. Our aim is to use this process to explain concepts / themes about cities, and the role that designers can play in improving the fabric of everyday life.

The model-making activity is suitable for all ages, skills and abilities. To participate please drop-in anytime between 10am and 4pm. All materials will be provided. Children are required to be accompanied by an adult.
