This event marks the launch and preview of Building Material Journal, a special 25th issue co-edited by Helen McFadden and Steve Larkin, introducing its theme: “Architecture and Landscape: Parts-to-a-Whole.”
Currently in development, the issue will bring together emerging ideas, research and contributions exploring the relationships between architecture and landscape. The programme will offer a preview of the thinking and making behind the publication, alongside a panel discussion exploring how people working across architecture, landscape and related disciplines engage with individual parts, fragments and interventions, and how these contribute to larger spatial, material, cultural and environmental wholes.
The discussion will open the theme to a wider audience, creating a space for exchange between architects, researchers, educators, landscape practitioners, students and others interested in architecture and landscape. As this special 25th issue takes shape, the event offers an opportunity to engage with its developing ideas, glimpse the process behind its making, and contribute new perspectives to the conversation.
