Tom Ravenscroft

LFA Curation Panel 2024

Tom Ravenscroft (he/him)

Editor, Dezeen

Tom is a multi award-winning journalist and architectural historian who is the editor of architecture and design website Dezeen. He is the AOP Editor of the Year 2023 and has been shortlisted for BSME Editor of the Year four times and PPA Editor of the Year three times.

Tom holds masters in architectural history from both Edinburgh and The Bartlett, where his writing focused on the architecture of data centres. His first book, ‘100 Women: Architects in Practice’ published by RIBA, will be released later this year.

“It's summer, and (hopefully) it's sunny, so it's time to get outside and see some architecture in the public realm! From East London pavilions to family brainstorming days, these are my picks of outdoor activities to get stuck into this June.”
