The Power of Space - Architecture Taster afternoon

During this interactive workshop, post 16 students will work in groups to construct a large scale structure out of simple materials, to explore how the design of space influences how we feel, behave and interact with other people.

If you already have a keen interest in this area this is your chance to meet like-minded students and current undergraduates, explore our City site and state of the art facilities as well as find out if Architecture is for you.

This event is also open to teachers. Please note that there will be a limit of five students for group bookings.
