The Architecture Centre's third City Ideas Studio residency addresses the question of How can we make more of the things we have?

Working with our thematic partner, BuroHappold Engineering, as well as presenting projects including those from Ecomotive, Bristol Re-use Network, Bristol Green Doors and Bower Ashton Wood Yard, we consider all aspects of resourcefulness. The exhibition explores not only how best to use finite resources such as building materials, land and money, but also how cities should harness the powerful resource of human inventiveness and action.

We are also pleased to be working once again with staff and students from the UWE Department of Architecture and the Built Environment. Their installation offers a thought-provoking response to the exhibition theme, exploring ideas of place and issues including landownership, ethics, access and ideas of belonging and citizenship.
