Soane Annex(ed) - an exhibition of six site-specific works by BSc Architecture Year 1 students.
Pitzhanger Manor, Walpole Park, Mattock Lane, Ealing, London, W5 5EQ
Saturday 10 December - Friday 16 December 2011
In Soane Annex(ed), the Bartlett presents new work by BSc Architecture Year 1 students which annex six areas throughout the Pitzhanger Manor house, using it as a testing ground for new ideas and concepts - challenging the traditional understanding of 'architecture', 'design' and 'space'. The temporary nature of the installations offers students a freedom to experiment with materials and crafting.
As Professor of Architecture at the Royal Academy, Sir John
Soane had a tradition of opening up his home to his architectural
students. Pitzhanger Manor's fourth collaboration with Bartlett School of Architecture,
UCL, continues this practice, engaging Soaneās historic Pitzhanger
Manor-House with contemporary architectural installations.
