A Book of Hours for Robin Hood Gardens

This exhibition by Judit Ferencz comprises hand-made books and booklets which trace the lifecycle of the East London council estate Robin Hood Gardens (1972). Judit’s onsite drawing practice documented everyday life on the estate in the years leading up to demolition. The exhibition, based on her PhD at the Bartlett, offers an opportunity for local residents, students and professionals in the industry alike to rethink the value given to the inhabitation of architecture and to reimagine a future where considerations of social and environmental sustainability are vital to processes of conservation and heritage listing.

The exhibition has been curated especially for the first floor landing space at Tower Hamlets History Library and Archives, outside the Reading Room where a significant part of the archival research took place. NB: Please check venue opening hours before visiting.
