V&A, RIBA & aberrant architecture ‘re-connect’ with students from LondonMet
On Tuesday 23 February 2010, a guest-list of creative professionals took part in ‘Office Futures’, a workshop put on by aberrant architecture and RIBA at the V&A Museum.
The workshop was the second in a series of events called ‘V&A Connects’, a new interactive programme that invites design professionals and practitioners to discuss and debate the leading issues in creative industries, such as architecture, interior design, fashion and the media.
Due to the success of the event, aberrant architecture, the V&A’s architecture residents, will repeat the Office Futures workshop on Tuesday 2 March for design students from Brighton University and London Metropolitan University.
aberrant architecture believes that the future of the office is at home, but the typical home is not designed to be an office. Therefore, the Office Futures workshop asks participants to transform a cardboard model of a typical residential house into a dual-purpose home/work space.
Building on the responses that aberrant have already received from the cream of London’s design professionals, students from London Met and Brighton University will now have the opportunity to put forward their designs for the home/work house of the future.
