“We need to be represented in the world of architecture” [Neil Pinder]
This week we have been thinking about the connection between the Black Lives Matter movement and architectural practices, education, forums from the local to the far, and how we can discuss what it is to have diversity in architecture. We want to continue the important conversations that are happening all over the world and put that into the creative industry context. What do we see when we think about diversity in architecture, what can we do to learn and inform and how can we make sure that is open to all?
We would like to share a film that we found on Architects Journal, brought to us by The Architecture Foundation. Focusing on the future of creative learning in the UK, ‘Architecture for All’ follows passionate London designer and teacher Neil Pinder and includes interviews with Graveney school students, specialists and politicians. The film was introduced as the launch of an Architecture Foundation programme called Celebrating Architecture which encourages creative learning in schools and promotes careers in design to young people. You can also follow them on Instagram @celebratingarchitecture
As always, ASPECT:Cinema is just as much about the discussion as it is about the films and so we would love to hear your thoughts.
