Join us for drinks, readings, and an exhibition launching the first issue of lowercase-a, a magazine for architectural writing.

About the event

Please join us in celebrating and launching lowercase-a Volume 1 Issue 1 with an evening-long exhibition, readings by the contributors, and drinks and socialising in a relaxed setting.

Copies of the magazine will be available for purchase at the event. Food and drink are also available to purchase from The Lion & Unicorn, our host for the night.

Reserving a spot for this event is mandatory but free — if you would like to support future issues and operating costs of the magazine, you may optionally name a fair price for your ticket.

About the magazine

lowercase-a is a new magazine, co-edited by Qing Tang and Joseph Williamson.

lowercase-a is loosely about architecture and writing about architecture. The ‘lowercase’ in our name references a direct opposite; the Capital-A (Capital-A Art, Capital-A Architecture…). It is not a rejection or an attack on how these supposed more ‘proper’ things hold more seriousness or are attached to a legitimising force. We propose that both proper and improper can coexist, and lovingly so.
