Love Architecture Festival

Anything that gives us the chance to bathe in the beauty Of Time And The City on the big screen is OK by us. So roll on this year’s Love Architecture Festival.

The ten day celebration of the built form takes over the city at the end of the week, with fun stuff for budding Le Corbusiers everywhere - build a Lego version of our house? Why the heck not? Probably last longer than some of the luxury apartments cluttering the waterfront…
