Hello. It’s time
to talk about dreams.
After many months
and equally many phone calls and emails, we are very excited to announce the
programme and speakers for the first HEL/LO – Let’s Talk event.
HEL/LO – Let’s
Talk About Dreams, held at The Gopher Hole in Hoxton 24 May, focuses on
self-initiated, DIY architecture and design projects that shape the cities and
communities we live in.

The speakers for
the event are Helsinki-based architect and designer Hella Hernberg and Olli Sirén, producer and initiator of
groundbreaking community projects together with the London-based designer and
art director Asif Khan and the young architectural practice Mobile Studio.
Self-initiated
projects are proving that the urge to create is stronger than ever. The
speakers taking part in the first HEL/LO – Let’s Talk event have created
publications, manifestos, buildings, products and events that have had an
impact in London and Helsinki. They will discuss the proactive nature of their
work and the changing methods designers and architects are using. What does it
really take to turn a dream into reality?
A dream can be
inspirational, unforgettable, even life changing. So can a really good
conversation. If you can dream it, you can definitely talk about it.
HEL/LO – Let’s Talk About
Dreams is a free event, but booking is essential. Secure your ticket here.
