Forgotten Spaces: Bow Arts Artists at Somerset House

Forgotten Spaces

Great Arch Lobby and Lightwells

Free Admission

Forgotten Spaces is about looking at the future development of our cities differently. Based on an open ideas competition run by the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA), architects, engineers, students and designers of all kinds were invited to submit proposals for overlooked spaces across Greater London.

Our cities are awash with obscure pockets of land, from land under flyovers, unloved green verges and disused car parks, how might we reclaim them? From underground climbing tunnels, city grottos, rooftop social hubs and inhabited church spires, this exhibition showcases a range of imaginative proposals from all over the capital and explores alternative ways to use and interact with urban space.
