Embark on a tour exploring the building design of the V&A, or doodle along as architects and engineers explore how modern design, values and science could shape a 21st century version of the iconic Crystal Palace, hosted by the Museum of Architecture. Then see the renowned glass structure quirkily reimagined through gingerbread and sandcastles!
