Freestyle: Architectural Adventures in Mass Media - An Exhibition

Riba’s latest exhibition at 66 Portland Place will take you on a journey through time from the Renaissance to postmodernism, through virtual reality.

This new commission by multidisciplinary design studio Space Popular raises one of the most enduring concerns of architecture: the rise and fall of architectural styles.

Drawing on their world-class collections, Space Popular uses virtual reality to examine styles of the past and to consider the technology’s impact on contemporary spaces and buildings.

Historic artefacts are displayed alongside newly commissioned content, inviting you to enter a beguiling virtual universe to experience how popular cultures and technologies impact architecture and its style evolution.

Opening times

This exhibition is open from 26 February to 16 May 2020.

Monday to Saturday: 10am to 5pm

Tuesday: 10am to 8pm

Sunday: Closed
