Blueprint

The Battle of Ideas provides a valuable space for free-ranging discussion, where architects and designers can benefit from the ideas of thinkers and writers from a range of other disciplines. Blueprint is delighted to be media partner for a debate about visionary architecture and we very much hope this will lead to a more receptive climate for ambitious plans and ideas.

All together now: the rise of the choir

"I have been doing the Battle of Ideas for a couple of years, but never before have I felt so heartened and so alive as the day ended. The spectacle of so many fascinating minds, none too proud to agree, none too modern to disagree, all at work on the most important questions of this rocky period: it's enough to make you believe there's hope for the species, yet."
Zoe Williams, columnist, Guardian; author, What Not to Expect When You're Expecting
