A mini-building collaboratively designed with eight year old pupils at Friars Primary School.

We led a participative brief development and co-design process, leading from a classroom workshop in South London to a built installation in Stockholm.

The children collaboratively developed their brief for a dream house. A spatial constitution was developed by synthesising their drawings. Priorities were debated and agreed.

Large scale models provided a tool to test and develop the designs collaboratively with both children and builders.

After this first exhibition at Färgfabriken (2010) the Building Blocks concept has been developed with cultural institutions, architects and children in Oslo (2011), Berlin (2012), Mostar (2015), Bucharest (2016) and Yangon (2018).
