WAF London - 24-27 June 2015

Join London’s family-friendly architecture fest with WAF London and LEGO

LONDON – World Architecture Festival (WAF) is calling on London’s next generation of architects to design the bridges, towers and London Squares of the future in association with LEGO.

Parents and children are invited to join the free WAF London Family Day on Saturday 27 June, to view over 400 of the world’s best new architectural projects exhibited at P3 Ambika, Westminster University, and to be inspired to construct their own creations under the supervision of one of the world’s foremost LEGO artists, Duncan Titmarsh.

Budding young architects and designers of all ages have the opportunity to win some great LEGO prizes, including four tickets to LEGOLAND, Windsor. Families will have the added opportunity to see teams from eminent schools of architecture and design, including University of Westminster, Ravensbourne and Southbank University, participate in a professional design charette - a collaborative session where a group of designers drafts a solution to a design problem - themed on redesigning the London Square.

Booking is essential for the WAF London LEGO Family Day.

The WAF London LEGO Family Day marks the culmination of a three-day programme of talks, presentations and debates upon which both the architectural profession and general public can participate in the ‘big conversations’ affecting international design.
