The sixth edition of the National Architects in Schools Initiative is well underway, with architects and architectural graduates working with teachers and Transition Year students in all corners of the country! Collaborating on a hands-on design project over a series of workshops, students will gain insight into architecture, design and the built environment, will learn drawing, making, mapping and design skills and may even begin to affect change in their schools and local communities. Projects will be exhibited in April 2019 and we will soon begin to publish details of the activities going on as part of the programme on our dedicated website, mydesignjournal.ie.
