Clare and Ellie were invited to talk with Felix and Alula, S4 school students from Edinburgh as part of Archischools special Architecture Fringe 2021 episodes. Archischools aim to empower and engage our young citizens’ participation in the built environment.
They spoke about their architecture journeys so far and Imagine If’s Re-Imagine project for this year’s Architecture Fringe.

As part of the opening ceremony for the RSA Open Exhibitions of Art and Architecture, it was announced that Imagine If are this years Winners of the RSA Medal for Architecture: Medal for the best work by a young Architect!
We are thrilled at this news and are super excited to share it with you all. The print we submitted would not have happened without all the amazing conversations around shared living we have had over the past few years. Our winning print was based on our Home of 2030 competition entry.
Thank you to the Royal Scottish Academy for choosing Imagine If for this award, we are extremely grateful. We just have to figure out how to share the award between us now…friendship medal?
We are always keen to have more conversations around sharing resources in communities, please get in touch if you fancy a chat!
We decided to enter into the RIBA’s Home of 2030 competition to realise and explore some of the ideas and opportunities we have found from our data collection on sharing resources and from conversations had with our families, friends and peers.
Our masterplan shows an overview of key ideas such as edible borders, pedestrian & cycle routes and community buildings dotted throughout our coceptual scheme.
We were longlisted which is a huge achievement for Imagine If!
Stumbled across some lovely colourful pebbles on our daily walk, what a lovely way to spread some positive vibes during such uncertain times. We felt inspired to continue this happy mission and painted some of our own, why not give it a go?
