Sensing Spaces

Seven architectural practices from six countries and four continents. 23,000 square feet. 72 days. One monumental exhibition.
Some of the most creative architectural minds from around the world have come to the Royal Academy of Arts to give you a new perspective on architecture and transform our Main Galleries with a series of large scale installations.
As you respond to different structures, textures, lighting, scents and colours, we invite you to consider some of the big questions about the nature of architecture; how do spaces make us feel? What does architecture do for our lives?

Architects: Álvaro Siza, Grafton Architects, Diébédo Francis Kéré, Kengo Kuma, Li Xiaodong, Pezo von Ellrichshausen, Eduardo Souto de Moura
