Architecture Academy
About this episode

In this episode we talk to Neal Shasore, the head of school at The London School of Architecture about some of the ideas that are helping to shape the school such as inclusion, decoloniality and adaptability. We talk about origins of the school, but also the future of the architecture school including its upcoming Part 0 and Part 4 architectural courses, collaborations with architectural practice and with local authorities. We talk about what it means to work in architecture now and what it might mean to work in architecture in the future.
