Haworth Tompkins held an away day, focusing on our Practice and Design Goals as we approach 2030. Chaired by Hattie Hartman from Architects’ Journal, the whole studio got together to address our response to the planetary emergency. Through a mixture of talks and workshops, the studio reflected on our progress since our last away day in 2019, and ways in which we can continue to change our internal processes as well as how we design. We heard from Rafe Bertram from LB Enfield, Judith Sykes from Expedition Engineering, Mike Wells from Biodiversity by Design, Andre Viljoen, Professor of Architecture at University of Brighton, Alex Whitcroft from KIN and Gwilym Still from Max Fordham on a variety of topics including Urban Masterplanning, Sustainable Communities, Urban Ecology, Energy and Whole Life Carbon. Following these talks, and an open discussion with all the speakers, we broke into small groups, looking at what we can do in the coming days, weeks and months. The conversations will continue within the studio on how we can incorporate what we’ve learnt, pioneering solutions we can offer, and how we can share all of this more widely.
