Search every Part 2 studio in London by theme, site and school

Model by Grant Shepherd, University of Westminster, DS16 

The Architecture Foundation’s database of all Part 2 studios in London is now live. It can be accessed at www.architecturefoundation.org.uk/schools


The Architecture Foundation has "developed this free resource with the aim of opening up lines of communication between students and tutors exploring similar fields of research in different universities.

The 88 studio descriptions are tagged with keywords relating to the topics being investigated and the places where projects are being developed. A student at the Cass concerned with the future of light industry in the Old Kent Road can therefore quickly establish that colleagues at the Bartlett are also focused on manufacturing while others at the AA are working in the same part of London."
