LONDON FESTIVAL - WEBSITE

We are on the London Festival Website!

Year One architects propose a lightweight structure celebrating the sounds of the place - the River Thames, Big Ben over the way, the carousel behind, the Railway above and Buskers below. Re-marking Hungerford Bridge with the imagined and the physical – asking who is performing?

Working with the Saison Children's Poetry Library at the Royal Festival Hall, wishing to bring the library outside for the summer. The structure will reveal the underestimated qualities of the everyday life of this transitory space. The build and opening will be on Saturday 12th July (subject to approvals) and will be celebrated with some occasional performances.

STIFTER'S DINGE

Five grand pianos, insides out, are suspended in the clearing of a forest… absolutely amazing composition - it you are in town check this out - its monumental and ephemeral.
Something to see if you can.
