An important exhibition at the Royal Academy schools of Architecture, Design and Conservation.
Students and teaching departments were asked to submit their projects for inclusion and 31 were chosen for the exhibition to illustrate how new ideas, new materials and new methods of construction or manufacturing will help to reduce global emissions of CO2 by at least 70%.
As with the exhibition of drawings at the Museum of Copenhagen, the English title for this exhibition is slightly ambiguous whereas the Danish title nails it. Backstage implies something more of the nuts and bolts of what happens through the process of designing and building …. Bag facaden - or Behind the Facade - is much more about the ideas and the discussions and the concept behind the obvious public face of the building …. it’s facade.
The exhibition is arranged into a number of major themes that explore the concepts and the concerns that are driving forward Danish architecture and the headings or titles for these sections …. including Cities are for people; Status quo is dead; Nature is back; Light brings Life and I am my home …. indicate some of the ideas explored.

From 1886 until it’s closure in 1998, Københavns Kommune - Copenhagen City Council - had it’s own drawing office that employed some of the best architects in the city .
There are 180.000 drawings from the office in the archive. Many shown here for the first time were clearly working drawings so are much thumbed and others are amazing presentation drawings for projects that did not get beyond the drawing board.
The English title of the exhibition is a little ambiguous - in that it might suggest these are sketches or scenes in the city - whereas the Danish, if translated directly, is more specific so this is The City on the Drawing Board.
These are superb drawings, often described in English as technical drawings - so plans, elevations and details of construction drawn to a specific scale - and they include designs for major projects like the White Meat Market in the Meat Packing District, apartment buildings around the city, new schools, engineering infrastructure including water towers and even designs for details of street furniture like city benches. street lighting and advertising stands
