Architects Build Small Spaces


Beetle's House - Terunobu Fujimori - seen here

I like the look of these architectural interventions opening tomorrow at the V&A in London. Architects Build Small Spaces features the work of seven architects chosen from a long-list of nineteen who submitted proposals. Built within the V&A galleries, the structures explore ideas of refuge and retreat.

  4. Hi Swinkie! Hope you're good? Oh yes - Baba Yaga with bells on - funny, I'm reading a book called 'Baba Yaga Laid an Egg' byDubravka Ugresic at the moment - the old girl must be on my mind...

    Hi Hazel - thanks for the heads up on your blog, I had a look and now I remember seeing that structure in 'Blueprint' magazine a while back - perfect!
