The studio is concerned with the role of architecture in building community through social integration. The students were asked to design a "third place" where the use centers around the theme of leisure. Their projects encourage coming together through shared interests and activity and activate the surrounding neighbourhoods and streets. The sites are located in Hackney Wick, an area which continues to experience dramatic change. Locally led research finds existing residents, particularly young people, feeling excluded from the benefits development brings. The projects aim to combat loneliness and support new communities through well-designed and thoughtful architecture.
