Over almost three decades Henley Halebrown have been exploring a human centred architecture, one that sees society as its foundation. Their work has covered an unusually wide breadth of building types, from health and housing to commercial and education, resulting in many awards and twice being shortlisted for the RIBA Stirling Prize. This presentation will revisit schemes that have developed the studio’s thinking and is aimed at seeding a dialogue challenging us to consider how architecture can help to address the immense challenges that face our society.

Biographies

Simon Henley and Gavin Hale-Brown founded their London-based studio in 1995 with a strong commitment for their architecture to serve a social purpose. Each building their studio designs is carefully planned to reflect its social logic, paying particular attention to the way people experience buildings, and how architecture affects our sense of well-being. The work of the studio includes homes, schools and university buildings, offices, health centres, arts and community projects.
