The Architecture Crew

The Architecture Crew from Newham talk about cities, architecture, planning and generally all that is urban.

Become a guest editor

Having an architecture group lets you experience things you wouldn’t have thought of doing. It has opened my eyes and made me notice the spaces and the environment around us. I am involved because it is fascinating. It feels like art.
 

Imagine a new bus for London, and win a top prize too!

A new bus for London logo
Young Londoners are invited to 'imagine a bus for London' in a new competition launched today by Mayor Boris Johnson and Transport for London. The competition delivers one of the Mayor's key promises to design a new bus for London inspired by the classic Routemaster.

You don’t need design skills to enter, simply come up with an idea for a new Routemaster that shows creativity and imagination.

Find out how to enter the competition.
