OMG, can you believe how fast time is flying? I mean, V&A East Museum is opening in April and it's already almost here! 🤯 But what I'm most excited about is the Basilica de la Sagrada Família exhibition in Barcelona... I've always wanted to see that place in person and now it's gonna be so cool to learn more about Antoni Gaudí's genius 😍. And can we talk about Peter Zumthor's David Geffen Galleries exhibit? That man is a total master of design! 🤩 I'm also curious about the Skate Space 50 exhibition, I've never been to a skate park before so it'll be nice to see some cool art in an unexpected place 🏎️. Anyway, can't wait for these exhibitions to open and explore all the amazing architecture and designs 💕.
 
ugh, another bunch of new museums popping up everywhere... like we're gonna be able to afford to visit them all? i mean idk if anyone's actually been to half these places but they're just soooo trendy now 🤣 anyway, v&a east museum sounds kinda cool, like a nice addition to the london scene. and skate space 50 at southbank centre is literally the kind of thing i'd wanna check out on a saturday arvo... but let's be real, it's gonna cost us all an arm & a leg to get in 🤑
 
ugh, another year of art exhibitions 🤯... like we haven't been bombarded with enough stuff to see yet. can't they just give us a break? but seriously, it's always cool to see what new spaces are popping up - the V&A East Museum in London sounds interesting, and who doesn't love a good Maggie's cancer care centre visit 🤝.

and omg, Peter Zumthor is like, so iconic... i mean, have you seen his designs? anyway, it's always great to see architects showcasing their work. but what's up with the google headquarters exhibition? are they just going to put up a few chairs and call it a day? 🤔 at least Bjarke Ingels Group and Heatherwick Studio are doing something new and innovative.

anyway, can't wait for all these exhibitions to open... and by 'can't wait', i mean i'll probably end up getting lost in the crowds and forget what I came to see 😂.
 
I'm so excited about all these museum openings! 🤩 I mean, who doesn't love art and architecture, right? But, can we talk about the V&A East Museum in London? Apparently, it's been years in the making and now it's finally happening on April 18th. That's a big deal! And what's up with the different architects and designers behind each exhibit? It's like, O'Donnell + Tuomey are opening one museum while Peter Zumthor is working on another in LA - I guess that's just how it works though. 🤷‍♀️ Anyway, I've heard great things about the Maggie's cancer care centres too... their design for V&A Dundee sounds really special.
 
I'm gonna say this, but I think people overhype architecture exhibitions all the time 🤔. Like, yeah it's cool to see iconic buildings and designs, but how often do we really get to experience them in real life? Most of us can't just take a weekend trip to Barcelona or LA to check out Sagrada Família or Geffen Galleries 😴. And don't even get me started on V&A East – is it really worth the hype for a museum that's basically the UK's answer to MoMA? 🤷‍♀️ I mean, what sets it apart from other museums in London? Is it just the East London location or something else entirely?
 
Can't believe we're already getting all these amazing exhibition openings lined up! I mean, V&A East Museum is gonna be epic, and O'Donnell + Tuomey's design is literally going to blow our minds 💥. And can we talk about Maggie's cancer care centres? That's just heartbreaking yet inspiring at the same time ❤️. They're doing such incredible work, it's amazing they're getting the recognition they deserve.

I'm also super stoked for Skate Space 50 - who doesn't love a good skate park? 🎿 And, of course, Antoni Gaudí's Basilica de la Sagrada Família... what can you say, masterpieces never cease to amaze us 😍. Peter Zumthor's David Geffen Galleries is gonna be sick too! I mean, the guy's a genius architect - I'm sure it's going to be an unforgettable experience.

What's crazy though is how many amazing architects are working on so many incredible projects all at once 🤯. It just goes to show that there's always something new and exciting coming down the pipe! Can't wait to see 'em all in person 💪
 
exhibitions 🎨, always something new to get excited about... i mean, who doesn't love more museums and fancy buildings? 🤷‍♀️ the v&a east museum in london is gonna be a big deal, no doubt about it. o'donnell + tuomey are like the go-to architects for all things prestige, you know? 👑 meanwhile, skate space 50 in southbank centre sounds like a blast... perfect excuse to get out of the office and pretend to care about modern art 📚 and, of course, there's always the obligatory david geffen gallery opening in los angeles... because what's california without a bunch of rich people showing off their stuff? 💸 anyway, can't wait to see what other cultural events 2025 has in store for us... or not. 😒
 
I'm loving all these amazing exhibition openings 🤩! You know what's really cool? How architecture is bringing people together 🌐. I mean, take V&A East Museum in London - it's like a bridge between past and present, all that O'Donnell + Tuomey design is so sleek and modern 🔥.

And I'm stoked for the Maggie's cancer care centres too! V&A Dundee is doing some incredible work supporting people with cancer 💖. On a more fun note, who doesn't love skate culture? Skate Space 50 at Southbank Centre sounds like a blast 🎿!

But what really gets me excited is that there are so many different architects and designers showing their stuff all over the world 🌍. It's like this whole beautiful tapestry of creativity is coming together to inspire us 🔨.

I'm also curious about those Google HQ design opening in August... will it be another futuristic wonderland? 😉 Can't wait to check them out!
 
just saw this news about all these amazing exhibitions comin up! been feelin really inspired to get out more and explore all these amazin buildings & spaces 🏯🎨 think its so cool that the v&a museum is openin in london, can't wait to check it out and see some of the latest designs and innovations 🤩 but also feelin a bit down about how much time we spend inside staring at screens and not enough time appreciatin our surroundings 📊💻 gotta make sure to take some time for self-care and get outside to enjoy all this beauty nature has to offer 🌿💚
 
I'm loving how architecture is becoming more about experiences & spaces instead of just buildings 🌆. The V&A East Museum and Maggie's cancer care centres seem to be focusing on providing comfort & solace through design, which is really beautiful 🤗. And I'm curious to see how the Basilica de la Sagrada Família exhibition in Barcelona will showcase Antoni Gaudí's genius - it's always fascinating to see his work up close ✨.

On a slightly different note, have you noticed how architecture exhibitions are becoming more of a major event in cities? Like, they're not just for locals anymore, but people come from all over to attend & learn 🗺️. It's amazing to think about the impact these events can have on shaping our perceptions of design & culture 👀.

Also, it's cool that there are exhibitions like Skate Space 50 at Southbank Centre that bring together art & sport - who knew skateboarding could be so inspiring? 😎
 
I'm loving this year's exhibition lineup 🤩! It's amazing how architecture is becoming more than just functional spaces - it's also a way to showcase art and bring communities together 💡. V&A East Museum in London is going to be a game-changer, I can already imagine the vibes 🌃. And have you seen the skate space at Southbank Centre? That's going to be so lit for the young crowd! 🔥

I'm also curious about the Basilica de la Sagrada Família exhibition in Barcelona - Antoni Gaudí's work is a huge inspiration to me, and I love how they're bringing his iconic designs to life again 🎨. The collaboration between Bjarke Ingels Group and Heatherwick Studio for Google headquarters is really cool too, I've heard great things about their design style 😊.

What I think is even more exciting is the fact that these exhibitions are being held in some of the world's most iconic buildings - it's like they're fueling each other's creativity 🌈. Can't wait to see them all when they open! 💕

omg i'm so hyped about all these awesome exhibitions comin up!!! v&a east museum is gonna be amazing especially with o'donnell + tuomey designing it can't wait to see the skatespace 50 exhibition too at southbank centre london 🤩 they're doin some sick collabs like skate space 50 and google headquaters 📚👍 peter Zumthor's david geffen galleries is gonna be insane too!!! i'm all about that architecture life 💁‍♀️🏗️ antoni gaudí's basilica de la sagrada família opening is gonna be a masterpiece 🤯 can't wait to see it in person!!!
 
can't believe all these museums and galleries opening up around the same time... what's going on here? seems like there's some kind of architectural exhibition frenzy happening 🤔

i'm reading that V&A East Museum in London is one thing, but then you've got Maggie's cancer care centres with a whole different vibe... what's the connection between art and healthcare, really? 🤷‍♀️

and don't even get me started on Basilica de la Sagrada Família... i mean, it's already famous, what makes this exhibition so special? did some new info come out or is this just a rehashing of old stuff? 🕰️
 
I'm still on the fence about this whole exhibition craze 🤔. Like, I get it, people love to show off their architecture and design skills, but do we really need all these fancy museums popping up everywhere? 🚨 The V&A East Museum is supposed to be a big deal, but honestly, I'm not convinced. It's just another museum... what's so special about that? 😴 And what's with the Architecture Against Architecture exhibit? Sounds like a bunch of navel-gazing to me 🤮. I mean, can't we have some more practical conversations about urban planning and design instead of just showing off our fancy designs? 🏗️ At least the Skate Space 50 in London is supposed to be pretty cool... but only if they actually deliver on their promise 😎. And what's up with all these exhibitions opening at the same time? Is it some sort of coordinated effort to make architecture and design seem exciting again? 🤔
 
just had to check what's new with all these architecture exhibits... feel like I'm reading a list of cool things my kids can't do yet lol 🤣 anyway, i think its awesome that v&a east is opening soon... been hearing so much about it and cant wait to see the designs for those london buildings. also, who knew google was getting an exhibit? thats some serious architecture going on over there! 🤖 wonder if my kid will grow up to design something like that one day...
 
I mean, who's excited for all this amazing architecture? I'm pretty sure the architects had to work overtime just to get their designs done on time 🤣. Like, I can only imagine what it'd be like to live in a building that Peter Zumthor designed - I bet it'll feel like you're sleeping on a cloud... or at least a really comfy pillow 😴.

And can we talk about how cool it is that V&A East Museum just opened? I heard the O'Donnell + Tuomey team is super talented, but honestly, I'm more excited to see if they have any awesome gift shops where I can cop some sick museum merch 🛍️.

Skate Space 50, though - that sounds like a blast! Who knows what kind of crazy skate tricks we'll get to see? And I wonder how many Instagram posts it'll inspire...
 
I'm so stoked to see all these amazing architecture exhibits popping up around the world! It's like, we're living in the golden age of modern design, you know? 🤩 I mean, O'Donnell + Tuomey's V&A East Museum is gonna be a total game-changer, and Peter Zumthor's David Geffen Galleries are gonna blow our minds. And can we talk about Bjarke Ingels Group and Heatherwick Studio's Google headquarters? That's like, the ultimate collaboration between form and function! 💡

But what I think is really cool is how these exhibits are celebrating the masters – Reinier de Graaf, Antoni Gaudí... they're like, the legends of our time. And it's not just about the architecture itself, but the stories behind them, the people who created them. It's like, we can learn so much from the past, you know? 📚

And I love that these exhibits are happening at different times, too – some are opening in March, others in May... it's like, we're getting a whole year of architecture goodness! 🎉
