5th studio will be acting as practice mentors for the Trust’s Building Futures Programme, following this week’s introductory workshop by the Stephen Lawrence Charitable Trust.
The programme was set up to address barriers to access to the architectural profession faced by aspiring students from disadvantaged backgrounds, and provides young people with the support, advice and guidance they need to achieve and confidently take the next step in their architecture careers. Over the next six months, Kaiyil Gnanakumaran and Emily Carmichael will be mentoring two students in their final undergraduate year.
