The Building Centre, in Central London, was established in 1931. It has, since then, developed to become an independent forum dedicated to providing information and inspiration to all sectors of the built environment. The Centre is open to all involved in architecture and construction; it is a place where you can learn and develop knowledge and join the ongoing debate about the built environment.

The Building Centre operates as the commercial arm of The Building Centre Trust which is an educational charity, focusing on the built environment.
