Submit ReviewJuliet Sakyi-Ansah is an architect experimenting with architecture as a tool for driving social and environmental change using participatory and collaborative approaches. Invested in the potential of collective action, Juliet’s explorative work and approach often centres on people and place identity and how that manifests in the practice, process and production of architecture and the built environment. Juliet's emerging Studio OASA is her creative space for her research and design practice, process and production.
Juliet has taught at the Birmingham School of Architecture and Design as a Visiting Tutor. She has co-organised architecture conferences and symposiums including The Production of Place at UEL School of Architecture and Ecology theory forum 09 at the Sheffield School of Architecture. She recently collaborated with the Place, Culture and Identity research group on the inaugural Black in Architecture symposium on Race in Architectural Education: Decolonising the Curriculum at Oxford Brookes School of Architecture.
Juliet founded and spearheads The Architects’ Project. Here, she conceived and developed Narratives, a semi- academic publication space for projects exploring new and emerging ways of practice, writings on planning, politics and policy in architecture, the built environment and related subjects. As part of The Architects’ Project, Juliet is creating /tap Collective platform as a collaborative and creative lab that addresses complex social and environmental challenges and opportunities. Juliet’s current work on this platform includes Black in Architecture research unit, a change initiative addressing race and equity in UK Architecture. She also works on Learn/Play, a place-based design initiative that explores design opportunities for underused and abandoned outdoor spaces. Through the /tap Exchange platform at The Architect's Project, Juliet convenes interdisciplinary experts and communities for dialogue. For this, she currently coordinates the /tapTakeoverWeekends. She uses /tap Reach platform for community outreach projects.
Juliet received her BA Architecture and M.Arch from the Sheffield School of Architecture and completed her RIBA Part 3 at the Architectural Association School of Architecture. She is currently completing her PhD in Architecture and the Built Environment at Oxford Brookes University.
