Our Resources

Learning by Design 2007Open House aims to be the architectural resource of choice for everyone interested in good design, providing authoritative and respected information for the general public, teachers, young people, decision-makers and journalists.

Our resources aim to provide more in-depth information and guidance to encourage Londoners to participate in and contribute to the making of their city. They demonstrate the range and impact of Open House’s programmes and the expertise developed from extensive action research. Case studies, toolkits and other materials help users to develop the skills and language to engage in dialogue and debate about the buildings around them.

Our education resources for teachers and architects, including Learning by Design and Mapping Boundaries, can be ordered from our resources shop page. (There is a small charge to cover P&P and administration.)
