Pick up a guide during Unexpected festival and visit Lesser Known Architecture, an ongoing nationwide research project that celebrates overlooked or forgotten architectural forms. The project documents buildings, structures and concepts that defined their time, inspiring future architectural visions and technologies, and yet remain unknown to the general public. Started by photographer Theo Simpson, Lesser Known Architecture remembers the existence of such works as well as the architects and engineers who developed them.

New photographs commissioned for this presentation are exhibited alongside original works at locations across Exeter city centre commonly used for advertising, such as bus shelters and free standing advertising boards. These site-specific installations allow the public open access to the project, encouraging wider engagement with our built environment.

Printed guides containing information about the artworks, and suggested routes to visit all six locations are available during the festival from partner venues, tourist information centres, Unexpected festival locations and artwork locations.

This is a free event, located around Exeter city centre.
