KASA 2010 | de Rijke Marsh Morgan




It's our pleasure to announce our first lecture for 2010!

Sadie Morgan from de Rijke Marsh Morgan will be coming down to begin our exciting new series of open lectures for 2010.

dRMM celebrate their 15th anniversary this year, and they have achieved much in that time. The practice takes pride in carrying out work that is innovative, high quality and socially useful. Having won many awards already - several for their first, the office building in which they currently work - they strive to push boundaries.

Gaining much press for their innovative 'Sliding House'; the "boisterous polychromy" of Claphan Manor Primary School; and their wonderful presentation at the 2008 Venice Biennale; dRMM are continually causing waves in the architectural community.

So from 5pm in the Marlowe Lecture 1, come have a drink on us, and listen to Sadie Morgan talk about her practices’ current work.
