The Treehouse by Studio Kyson

The London Festival of Architecture is now up and running with over 500 events live across the capital. Here’s some of our favourite up-coming highlights…

#1 Dulwich Pavilion: The Shortlist (5 – 22 July 2018)

Where: Dulwich Picture Gallery

Discover six shortlisted designs from emerging architects for the 2019 Dulwich Pavilion which will be on display in the Gallery’s glass walkway throughout the festival.

During the month of June the Museum of Walking have created an eclectic series of walks bringing to life some of the key characteristics that focus on London Bridge’s past, present and future. Join for a free interactive guided walk.

#3 The Treehouse at Battersea Power Station (1 – 30 June)

Where: Circus West Village, Battersea Power Station

‘The Treehouse’ is designed and crafted by members of London practice, Studio Kyson. It is a pavilion that allows for everyone to experience architecture and used as a tool to offer a new perspective on the individual, the city and identity. Crafted out of charred timber (Shou Sugi Ban) and smoked mirrors. Channelling the principles of form, light and texture, this unusual structure brings a new approach to the tree house concept.

Taking place at London’s newest creative workspace,  the Silver Building, attendees will receive a tour of the building, followed by drinks and a talk that explores the capital’s identity.
