果冻影院

An opening party takes place on the evening of 26 July in 果冻影院's聽Main Quadrangle on Gower Street.

The Bartlett has launched a with information on this year's show.

The annual celebration of student work is one of the world鈥檚 biggest architecture degree shows. Nearly 500 architecture students will present a range of inventive, creative and visual work, from models and drawings, to films, multimedia installations and computer fabrications.

This year鈥檚 show opener will be renowned architect, Carme Pin贸s, who founded in 1991, after working with Enric Miralles. Carme鈥檚 most notable projects include the Pedestrian Footbridge in Petrer, Alicante; the Juan Aparicio Seafront in Torrevieja and the Cube I Tower in Guadalajara, Mexico, the models of which were acquired by MOMA in 2006. 聽Carme combines running her practice with teaching and has been a guest professor at the universities of Columbia, Harvard and Lausanne.聽

The show takes place during the month-long , and for the first time, includes a programme of family activities on 27 June, with a range of drop-in activities such as a 鈥榯reasure hunt鈥� around the exhibition鈥檚 unique Unit spaces, 鈥榖uild a house鈥� with laser-cut models, and a Minecraft workshop.

Amongst the diversity of subjects students have explored and defined this year there is a noticeable number that address complex social issues including community spaces for teenage mothers, urban challenges through mass unemployment, housing, mining; and in addition complex fabric and production issues such as waste, energy, disaster management, heritage, climate change and global politics.

Following on from the Scottish referendum and this year鈥檚 general election, this year鈥檚 work includes MArch Architecture students studying on Design Unit 17, led by聽Yeoryia Manolopoulou, Niall McLaughlin and Michiko Sumi, creating work looking at Devo Max, devolution and full fiscal autonomy. While BSc Architecture students studying on Design Unit UG1, led by Patrick Weber and Sabine Storp, have been responding to London鈥檚 housing crisis; working on projects to transform spaces within Camden鈥檚 St Pancras Way Estate and reinventing new housing typologies along the Regents Canal.

,聽run by Bartlett graduates Matthew Shaw and William Trossell, return this year to document The Bartlett Summer Show for the fifth year running. Their 3D scanning technology captures a cloud of over a billion precisely measured points which they then assemble into a virtual model.聽Exhibition spaces are individually scanned in full colour and with millimeter accuracy and used to create interactive apps () allowing users to navigate the exhibitions and enjoy the work long after the exhibition closes.

Professor Bob Sheil, Director, The Bartlett School of Architecture says:

鈥淭he inspiring work of our graduating students underpins everything this School is about. As a prolific bunch, only a fraction of their work can be represented in the show and its accompanying catalogue. The show is a tribute to their talent, effort, ambition and enthusiasm.鈥�

The Bartlett Summer Show sees the launch of the annual Bartlett Book, a showcase of student work. The publication is more than just a yearbook: beautifully designed and highly illustrated, it includes at least one image of every student鈥檚 work, each Design Unit鈥檚 brief, thesis excerpts and introductory texts by Professors and Programme Leaders. The book will be on sale throughout the show and will also be available on Amazon and at various book shops throughout the year.
