Margaret Howell supports Open House London Weekend 2013
21 – 22 September '13
Margaret Howell continues to support Open-City, the architectural education charity founded by Victoria Thornton to raise awareness and appreciation of the urban landscape. Open-City actively promotes public engagement and education programmes, encouraging a dialogue about the built environment and urban regeneration projects.
Established in 1992, the charity offered the public access to private and public buildings of architectural merit over a single weekend in September, many of the buildings were open to the public for the first time. The initiative was known as Open House Weekend, launched in London and now a global annual event across twenty cities including New York, Buenos Aires, Tel Aviv, Perth, Barcelona, Rome and Helsinki.
For this year’s Open House London Weekend (21 – 22 September) Margaret is supporting Battersea Power Station and encouraging the public to visit the building before the site is handed over to developers at the end of September.
Margaret has produced a series of postcards showing a selection of her favourite Open House buildings, the postcards will be available at Battersea Power Station and other key venues over the weekend.
