Students from the BA (Hons) Architecture course have built a brand-new, experimental platform for their virtual neighbourhood. Here, virtual visitors will be able to walk around inside student’s architectural projects and neighbourhoods and discover the students’ design process.

Tutors and students worked to overcome the limitations of lockdown and build an interactive world where students’ work is placed ‘front and centre’. The impact of Covid-19 encouraged students to think deeper into the wants and needs of a community and to design sustainable, exciting interpretations of London hotspots such as Bermondsey and Hackney Wick. The launch of the virtual neighbourhood coincides with the release of the new architecture course website which is a platform for projects, virtual neighbourhoods and a space to share ideas for the future of architecture.
