In the next talk by architect developers, Donald Matheson will discuss the practice’s first project – the redevelopment of workshops in Forest Gate, east London and his second project, a new build house on a site that contained three garages.

The series is aimed at architects who would like to know more about the opportunities and challenges around being an independent developer, including spotting creative solutions that a non-architect developer will often miss. Future speakers include Sophie Goldhill.

Amanda Baillieu and Gus Zogolovitch set up Developer Collective in 2018 to teach professionals how to become design-led property developers and give them the contacts and resources to deliver their projects. Their book How to be an Architect Developer will be published in October.

The event will be followed by networking drinks and nibbles.

This event is supported by Land Tech and The Building Society.
