AiM: IN PROGRESS - Exhibition and Launch event - London Design Festival
Presented as part of the Architects Index of Modelmaking project, AiM: IN PROGRESS is the first in a three-year series of architectural exhibitions exploring how physical models can influence the design process — before the full-scale build.
Rather than focusing on the fully resolved, each exhibition will evolve to reveal how projects develop through conversations between clients, end users, modelmakers and architects. Here, models are not simply representations of an architectural idea, but tools for testing, questioning and, sometimes, changing that idea.
Featuring student made and professional practice models.
Part of London Design Festival 2026
Opening event talk Wednesday 16th September - 18.30
Join us alongside representatives of the European Cultural Centre Italy and a selection of contributors, to discuss the latest AiM exhibition. Focusing on the models behind current architectural projects, we’ll look at the stages of design development when ideas are still forming — and consider how much of what ultimately gets built is shaped by what happens along the way.
