Exporting skills to Moscow

Article Abstract:

Three architecture students are organising a series of workshops in Moscow aimed at exchanging ideas and practical skills between Russian and British architects. The idea of Project Imagination Moscow grew out of exchange visits between students at Canterbury College of Art and the Moscow Architectural Institute. Russian architecture was debased by the communist regime and architects and students are eager for practical advice while British architects can learn of opportunities in Russia.
