Description
Put down the mouse. Pick up a pen.
No Undo is a one-day analogue sketching workshop, live competition, and mentorship event for architecture students, recent graduates, and emerging professionals. No software. No screens. Just you, your team, and your hands. Taking place at Truman Brewery, London on Saturday 18 July, as part of the London Creates exhibition, this is a day built around the skills that matter most right now - and that AI simply cannot replace.
Arrive as a stranger. Leave as a team.
You will be placed into a team of five on the day and work together through three hands-on workshops, guided by experienced mentors and practitioners from AIA UK and NOMA.
Workshop 1 - Team Building & Planning A facilitated session to help your team find its rhythm - identifying strengths, building trust, and setting up for a successful day together.
Workshop 2 - Materials & Composition Hands-on exploration of analog drawing mediums - alcohol markers, ink, pencils, and watercolour - led by experienced artists and architects. Learn to compose, scale, and communicate ideas on paper.
Workshop 3 - Project Execution & Presentation Bring it all together. Develop your drawing skills and prepare your team for the final competition.
Final Competition Two hours. One A0 board. Entirely by hand. Each team receives an iconic building by blind draw and produces a full set of hand-drawn presentation drawings. Judged on craft, communication, and teamwork.
Prizes Winners receive sketchbooks, drawing materials, and more.
