✏️ New Architecture Writers is an experiment in architectural pedagogy. Founded in 2017, it is a free London-based programme for emerging writers of colour, developing the journalistic skill, editorial connections and critical voice of its participants.
Running public events is critical to the programme’s mission of expanding architectural discourse and sharing it with a wider public. Housewarming will be presented as a series of interviews, choreographed across the garden and living spaces of Van Gogh House.
