BUILD

Our unique BUILD projects enable young people to set the brief, design and build their own spaces and places in truly life-transforming experiences.

Our tried and tested method has seen award-winning new temporary and permanent structures and installations – planned, designed and built by young people – emerge in places in and around major museums, galleries, universities, schools and festivals across the UK.

Our BUILD work happens at three different scales:

  • PRE-BUILD: smaller-scale, temporary transformations of spaces through installations and exhibitions.
  • BUILD: the original MATT+FIONA model that enables young people to set the brief, design and build their own full-scale spaces and places. These are usually designed over several months and then built over several days.
  • BUILD+: larger, more complex and more ambitious projects, often serviced, in which professional fabricators create the final design, and the children and young people enrich it.
