Open House Worldwide
Open House was founded in London in 1992 by Victoria Thornton. Her vision was to break down the barriers between architects and the public. She invited Londoners to an open house event where they had the chance to experience how architecture shapes the city. Open House was born. Since then, the festival has been established in over 55 major cities around the world and attracts more than 2 million visitors each year.
