The International Summer School is a key component of our proposed programme of work supported by Creative Scotland’s Multi-Year Funding. The school would be held biennially, with the first edition of the school due to be held in June 2026.
Imagined as a residential long weekend located somewhere within Scotland’s great outdoors, the summer school would see a mixed programme of talks, construction and community building led by a commissioned roster of renowned educators and practitioners.
The workshop hosted on the 14th June 2025 would seek to collectively explore what an architecturally-orientated international summer school in Scotland could be. Via a number of short provocation and group discussions, what might such a school be called? What pedagogical structure might the school be frame-worked around? What might we want to learn, and how might we want to learn it?
The Core Programme for the Architecture Fringe 2025 has been made possible through support of Creative Scotland Multi-Year Funding, Moxon Architects, Helen Lucas Architects, and Collective Architecture.
