Students of Accelerate, a UK design mentorship scheme run by Open City and the Bartlett, explore the theme of dichotomies in their graduate show.
Now in its seventh year, Accelerate organises workshops and mentoring sessions for a group of 30 to 40 sixth form school students from backgrounds that are underrepresented in the architecture industry.
Open City is the charity behind Open House London, and the Bartlett School of Architecture is part of University College London. Together, the organisations devise a brief for the Accelerate students, organise lessons on architectural sketching and planning, and put on the end of year exhibition.
"This year, the workshops and mentoring were devised around the theme of 'Dichotomies' which has brought about provocative conversations and some incredible collaborative work," said Open City. "There is confidence and bravery in the work on show, which is remarkable for students at this early stage in their creative journey."
