Are you curious about the world you live in and how it could be different? Thinking beyond your degree or wondering what comes next?

If so, we’d love to invite you to Landscape Architecture Open Studios 2026, taking place on 24–25 February in the Landscape Studios, 5th Floor, Henry Daysh Building.
 
Across two days you can drop into our studios, meet staff and students, and explore how landscape architecture connects to big contemporary questions: climate and ecology, cities and public life, culture, justice, meaning-making, and designing with purpose.

  • Explore postgraduate study options
  • Find out how creative practice shapes real-world impact
  • Learn about careers that matter
