Ten days to go until one of the most expansive exhibitions of contemporary architecture ever put together.


In just ten days, ‘one of the most exciting exhibitions of 2014’ (Time Out) opens at London's Royal Academy: Sensing Spaces: Architecture Reimagined.

The huge task of bringing this project together has involved seven architectural practices from around the world, all of whom have been challenged to change our perspective on architecture. 

The large scale installations they have designed will encompass all 23,000 square feet of the Academy's Main Galleries.  Construction  has required 27, 185 screws, 1 tonne of concrete, 72,800 nails, half a million straws and 5553m of dowel!

To get a flavour of what you can expect, click here to hear direct from curator Kate Goodwin and to find out what’s been going on behind-the-scenes.  For more insight into the world of Sensing Spaces, check out Kate's blog here.

Sensing Spaces opens on the Twenty-Fifth of January.
