Organiser

UCL at Here East

LFA Voice at HE presents work from over 200 students across four interdisciplinary postgraduate programs at The Bartlett School of Architecture—Design for Manufacture, Design for Performance & Interaction, Bio-Integrated Design, and Cinematic & Videogame Architecture. These forward-thinking projects, developed at UCL Here East, explore themes such as digital fabrication, interactive environments, bio-design, future materials, and immersive spatial storytelling.

As part of the London Festival of Architecture, modular exhibition structures showcasing ongoing research will be installed across the Here East site, with an open day walk-through for visitors.

Join us to experience innovative design, cutting-edge facilities, and conversations tackling today’s most urgent architectural and societal challenges.
