Amazing show this week (delving into the latest YIMBY-NIMBY showdowns plus lots on the Renters Rights Bill, affordable housing asset managers AND of course Euston station)! Cheers Adam Peggs 🇵🇸 🙏✨

Yesterday I spoke to Open House Festival's The Brief on the housing emergency, the rise of for-profit social housing, YIMBY-ism and the prospects for the government meeting its house-building targets. A common thread is that we need *much* more public housing.

Can architecture inspire dance? During #OpenHouse2024 we invited Clod Ensemble to explore Royal College of Physicians an iconic Brutalist structure designed by Architect Denys Lasdun. They responded to the anatomy of the building through a movement workshop, part of our Animate programme.
