We are excited to invite you to the relaunch of the Coventry and Warwickshire Society of Architects, featuring a guided tour of Coventry University's Delia Derbyshire Building and an insightful talk by Svetlana Solomonova, Architect Director at BDP on optimising renovation.
This will all lead into the Coventry and Warwickshire Society of Architects AGM. The meeting will include an announcement and the introduction of the new Coventry and Warwickshire Society of Architects team.
This event offers a unique opportunity to explore the design process behind the project and discover how it is inspiring the next generation of architects to push the boundaries of creativity.
