Bedford Square, the last fully intact Georgian Square in London, has served as the home of the Architectural Association (AA) since 1917. Originally occupying just 34 and 35 Bedford Square, the AA now inhabits all of the buildings from 32 to 39, with number 36 serving as the main public entrance. A network of historic stairs and converted corridors provide access to rooms, workshops, courtyards and terraces. These prior domestic spaces now hold a diverse range of discourse, learning and academic development.
