The exhibition illustrated the work of architects from Yorkshire and beyond who have found inspiration from the context of North Yorkshire to create beautiful buildings that provide pleasure to their occupants. In the design of each of the buildings, the architects have solved a problem. This ranged from the need to open a Victorian house up to its garden so that a growing family can play safely, the creation of a new entrance to a primary school provides a new focal point and identity for its pupils, to the provision of an education facility to help increase the understanding of a heritage asset.
It brought together 18 projects from across North Yorkshire.
