The LSA Practice Network

The LSA Practice Network & Community is an active collaboration between ambitious and progressive architectural practices and the London School of Architecture (LSA). It is designed to strengthen ties between education and practice and create opportunities for talent development.

Our recent merger with the University of the Built Environment also provides us with additional opportunities to expand our network and impact across a wider range of aligned disciplines and access additional resources and capacity in support of our network and community.
