Know any aspiring architects and designers aged 8 to 11 who’d like to join us for our summer term architecture classes for children at Collingwood Yards, Melbourne?
We'll be designing for our climate, taking cues from nature, learning how to draw, make models and present ideas like an architect, while we create the most beautiful, sustainable and joy-filled buildings, streets, towns and cities!
Your child can drop in for one class at any time throughout the course to see how they like it, or you can book the whole course upfront.

Welcome!
Welcome to Little Architect Studio run by me, Charlotte, a UK architect based in the amazing city of Melbourne. 
When my Dad built an igloo for my sister and me in the Yorkshire winter of 1978, we sat inside it on the built-in snow seat, eating our Curly Wurlies (as you do), cocooned and safe. 
That was my first clear memory of what space feels like, aged 4.  All the magic happened inside that snow house.  It’s memory-making experiences like this that made me want to become an architect, all centred around the feeling of space.
Open Minds
Every child has these kinds of experiences – they know exactly how spaces make them feel and what they’re drawn to.  Their senses are acutely tuned into shape, texture, colour, light, dark, shadow, pattern. They are also deeply climate aware and have the openness of mind to come up with creative ideas and find the best solutions.
Conversations
So what if we could equip children with a language to express their ideas and help them use architectural thinking, skills and processes to design and create the spaces, places, homes, communities and cities of their imaginations? 
This is where Little Architect Studio comes in - to bring children into the conversation, to teach them about the wondrous world of architecture, and uncover their design genius as they busy themselves creating architecture that works brilliantly for people and the planet.
Hope to see you at the studio :)
