Make sure not to miss the Rachel Whiteread exhibition at Tate Britain as it goes into its final days. The work there is a playful and challenging reflection of our everyday environment.

Technology is the answer, but what was the question? | 22 January
This panel discussion will explore the ways in which we depend on technology in the architectural field. We use digital invention and innovation on a daily basis to produce drawings and visualise concepts; something of sci-fi fantasy a mere 50 years ago. This conversation will cover the important questions on this impact.

Architecture Foundation: 24 Hour London | 23 January
Sadiq Khan's pledge to establist a Lonfon Public Space Charter is responded to in two talks at the Garden Museum this week. The first looks at the demands and needs for different public spaces in our city, and the growing complexity of providing it. The second will look at how London can ever be a 24 hour city, and questions the closure of parks and public areas at night-time.

Europe is a tricky subject for us all these days, but the turbulent recent years have acted as a lens in which to view how we live as a continent. Tackling migration, asylum, hopes, and ruin, this event is a response to Europe in triptych.
