Fill this form to have the opportunity to join the New Generations platform: submissions will be reviewed on a daily-basis, and the most innovative practices will have the chance to be part of the media's coverage and participate in our cultural agenda, including events, research projects, workshops, exhibitions and publications.
New Generations is a European platform that investigates the changes in the architectural profession ever since the economic crisis of 2008. We analyse the most innovative emerging practices at the European level, providing a new space for the exchange of knowledge and confrontation, theory, and production.
Since 2013, we have involved more than 300 practices from more than 20 European countries in our cultural agenda, such as festivals, exhibitions, open calls, video-interviews, workshops, and experimental formats. We aim to offer a unique space where emerging architects could meet, exchange ideas, get inspired, and collaborate.

The pavilion, designed by Pricegore, is a monument to universal themes of colour, pattern, gathering, and celebration. The design seeks to combine references of both African and European cultures to create a temporary building that reflects the multicultural heritage of south east London.
The squat volume, layered timber structure and bold patterning refer to fabric markets, decorated facades, palatial ornament, dovecotes, grain stores and gateways, always seeking parallels and shared territory as a platform to widen accessibility and increase the visibility of the Picture Gallery.
Raised on monumental feet, the lightweight pavilion is assembled from thousands of individual pieces of timber, with different colours painted on each side.
The combination of these elements creates facades of bold geometric patterns that shift and merge according to viewpoint.
Internally, the pavilion resembles a small theatre-in-the-round, and visitors can climb to a perimeter gantry held within the depth of the slender structure.
The squat volume of the pavilion is informed by the cubic composition of the Dulwich Picture Gallery, to which it sits in close proximity.
The pavilion will act as welcome and orientation space for gallery visitors, as well as hosting a programme of thematic events throughout the summer.
