London is becoming taller, with tall buildings almost anywhere. Some have been designed by star-architects and considered architectural masterpieces, but controversy is high! Join me to find out what's happening, from history to the future. There will be time for questions and debate through the presentation:

  • Some "shocking facts" around the inevitability of the high rise
  • The New London Architecture (NLA) organisation and its research
  • Example of new architecture above and below London: City, Canary Wharf, Nine Elms-Battersea and the "basement belt".

About Roberta

I have a big passion for history of art and architecture and I love presenting on different art topics, making them relevant and interesting for all audiences. My knowledge is based on academic studies, guiding art and architecture tours in London as well as going to exhibitions on my own and talking to artists. Example of topics of my talks: women artists, architecture of London, art & music, textile art, street photography, etc. Ad-hoc art topics can be agreed with the organisation.

My art tour organisation is called Art Tours with a Theme - ART wiT and you can check out my activity on Instagram @artwit_london and Facebook @artwitlondon. My talks are offered in-person in London and online. You can have a look at my past talks on my YouTube channel (youtube.com/channel/UCZZIqTNVyZZDNZcwnw3kIpw).
