Bath architects Feilden Clegg Bradley Studios and consulting engineerings Buro Happold have teamed up to stage a unique event that will bring some of the best designers, directors, artists and thinkers in Europe to the city.

The not-for-profit event, called Power in Space, will encourage debate among international designers and directorsand allow delegates to exchange ideas.

While they are both based in Bath, Feilden Clegg Bradley Studios and Buro Happold have international reputations, particularly for expertise in sustainability.

The practices have worked together on many ground-breaking projects and are committed to reusing old buildings in the most positive and innovative ways possible. Both are working together on the Bath Abbey Redevelopment Project.

Power in Space takes place on Thursday October 20 in Bath Abbey, which is donating its use as the venue.

Free architectural tours take place the following day looking at contemporary cultural interventions in Bath and will visit Nicholas Grimshaw’s Thermae Bath Spa, the Roman Baths and the Holburne Museum, recently extended by Eric Parry Architects.
