I recently went to the Royal Academy to see the current exhibition on Renzo Piano, the Italian architect. There were inspiring structures and models on show, including small series of maquets experimenting with the shape and form of a building and sometimes the texture of the material used. I found various architectural designs inspired partly by aerodynamics, my upcoming theme. The show could be appreciated on any level however I think it was mainly aimed at architects and designers as it went into a fantastic amount of detail, showing sketchbooks, workbooks, notes and models. I loved the structures delicately suspended from the ceiling. Beautifully designed exhibition, to the detail. If you go, make sure you visit in a weekday as the rooms were packed with people. Take a look at these photos from the show.
