As architects, it's important that we take responsibility for the impact our buildings and spaces can have on the communities for which we design. At Reading, we recognise the changing context of architecture; our focus extends beyond the innovation of the physical form to the innovation of its use and the possibilities a new structure or space can provide a community to engage, think and behave differently.
Our teaching and learning facilities include a remodelled historic building with dedicated studio space available to use seven days a week. As well as valuing traditional drawing and visualisation, we place a strong emphasis on digital technologies, and you will have access to a purpose-built, 3D immersive digital design environment.
