Launch of the ABS art show!

ABS exhibition June 2017

Visit the exhibition Monday to Friday, 1pm-6pm, at Brady Mallalieu Architects, until 30th of June.

It’s here! Nouha and I have been tireless and, along with the WONDERFUL team at ABS, and with the invaluable help of Angela Brady and the rest of Brady Mallalieu Architects, we managed to put up an entertaining and insightful exhibition.

Late emails, early mornings, some rushing, but Katie, Reema, and Mark were there all the way and it was a pleasure to work alongside them.

The exhibition features a range of images created by people closely connected with our charity, using a variety of media and depicting significant personal memories of buildings or views in London. These images capture the diversity of architecture in London. Every piece comes with a short story written by the author, a memory of London or life, that makes the entire experience of the exhibition special.

We were delighted to welcome Rowan Moore, architecture critic for the Observer and author of Slow Burn City, to open our exhibition.​​

The team and I would like to thank all the contributors. Your enthusiasm and eager responses have moved us and we are truly grateful to each and every one:
