Signstrokes at the London Festival of Architecture 18.06.21

Signstrokes is a linguistic project for the deaf community founded by Chris Laing of Haworth Tompkins and Adolfs Kristapsons. Through their online resource they seek to inform British Sign Language (BSL) interpreters and users of BSL about architectural terms. Chris is running two workshops at the LFA this year, on 25 and 28 June. These are an opportunity to gain an insight into the journey of the project so far, pick up your hands and consider how to describe spaces with a visual language.
