6a architects feature in Future City, an exhibition and events programme that looks at the utopian origins of Milton Keynes and its future. The practice have been invited to design the expansion of MK Gallery. The exhibition features a collection describing their design process, combining books, films, artworks and images of completed buildings with the debris of the design process; the models, materials and prototypes produced during a project. A series of contemporary photographs by David Grandorge explore the seeds of a new twenty first century Milton Keynes.

The exhibition is open until 5th January 2014.
