The Architecture Foundation launched the temporary Closet Gallery as part of The London Festival of Architecture. The Closet was conceived by artist Simon Fujiwara, designed and produced with architect Sam Causer, in a railway arch in Bankside. It contained a series of short exhibitions and events exploring the space between domesticity and the city.

Equal parts sculpture and gallery, The Closet provided The Architecture Foundation with a temporary pavilion as part of an ongoing process that questions how architecture is exhibited and represented. What may at first appear to be a fanciful venue for exhibitions forces architects, artists and critics to question how they present themselves and their work, encouraging new thinking and ideas to come to fruition.
