Exploding the ‘Cabinet’
17th May 10.am till 5.00 pm
Plymouth University, School of Architecture, Design and Environment.
Design – Knowledge – Research


Working in partnership with Plymouth University, Designed In Devon have managed to secure 20 places to the ‘Cabinet’ Symposium. 



The symposium questions the role of museums and universities in difficult economic conditions, it will open debate by discussing contemporary, radical, and experimental strategies against the more rigid historical perspectives of the architectures of the museum, by focusing on ‘the design’ and the connections of the emergent experiences within its architecture, its spaces and its locations.


The international panel consists of:
Lucy Bullivant Hon. FRIBA Architecture curator, author & critic,
