LONDON FESTIVAL OF ARCHITECTURE 2017
Paternoster Square 1-30 June 2017
MINIPLEX 1.0
The initial version of Miniplex 0.1 was supported, produced and installed by AHMM for City Centre’s Youth Programme 2017, an educational initiative in collaboration with City Centre London.
Over the course of five workshops, a group of fifteen aspiring architects and engineers aged 14-19 have been given the opportunity to learn about architecture, engineering and construction as well as develop their design skills.
Working with architects from AHMM, engineers from ARUP and contractors from Knight Harwood, the students had the opportunity to be involved in designing and building a pavilion using MiniPlex and also to demonstrate it to the public and involve the audience into the making of it. The pavilion was installed in Paternoster Square and it was included in the itinerary of London London Festival of Architecture 2017.
Special thanks to AHMM and their Partnership Group for an incredible initiative, the continuous support and the huge number of colleagues at AHMM getting involved in the assembly and final installation! Many thanks to City Centre, Arup, Knight Harwood, Paternoster Square and especially to all the enthusiastic participating students!
