Make sure you go along to 'Don't Move Improve' this weekend if you are thinking about some DIY, and get out over the weekend to your local celebrations for 'The Great Get Together'… because after all, what is architecture without a community of people?

Negroni Talks – Ending the architecture export | 25 June
With speakers including Paul Finch, and Vicky Richardson (London School of Architecture). This talk is one of a series of provocative discussions, and focuses on the idea of 'architectural export' in the face of Brexit.
