Brixton-based architecture and design studios Squire & Partners and AWMA are excited to be collaborating once again for this year’s London Festival of Architecture with Who Cares?, a community window installation which explores and showcases the theme of this year’s festival: Care.
The bespoke display showcases what Care means to communities – and how this has changed over the past year – by sharing thoughts from local schools, young people and families.
Drawing inspiration from colourful prayer flags, submissions printed on seed-infused recycled paper are suspended in the windows of The Department Store, ReSole in Brixton Village and inside Pop Brixton, forming an art installation and symbol of care that residents and friends of Brixton can enjoy.
The installation will evolve throughout the month of June, inviting visitors to stop and contemplate what Care means to them. Once the display is dismantled, the seed paper will be gifted to friends of Brixton to plant, giving the installation a life after the festival through community seed dispersion.
