On 22 and 23 September 2018, the largest annual festival of architecture and design returns to the capital. Over the weekend, visitors are invited to discover the secrets of the Grade I listed, Nash-designed town houses that are home to the oldest scientific academy in continuous existence.
What is Open House?
Open House is a simple but powerful concept: hundreds of great buildings of all types and periods open up their doors to all, completely without charge.
This unique opportunity to access and understand architecture is a chance to look at everyday buildings anew, and communicates the value of a well-designed city to everybody who uses it. For more information visit the Open House website.
