Open Door 2022, an exhibition featuring the Grade I Listed Bristol Old Vic, is now open in Shanghai until 14 March 2023. Hosted by RIBA, British Council, and the URBANCROSS Gallery, the showcase displays a series of outstanding conservation projects from the UK and mainland China. The projects, divided into 20th century buildings and those built before 1901, exemplify how architects can address sensitive cultural heritage and sustainability issues while preserving our existing environment. Types of work on show cover a wide range, from cultural buildings, commercial constructions, and educational buildings to private homes. Details about Open Door can be found here, and you can watch the exhibition video about our work in Bristol here.
