Celebrating 3 Years of Building Bridges Through Architecture & Design
9 November 2026
The London Turkish Architects Association (LTAA) celebrated its 3rd Anniversary on 5 November 2026 at the TOTO Concept Showroom, bringing together 100 architects, designers, industry leaders, and partners for an evening that highlighted collective achievements, cultural exchange, and professional networking. Hosted in collaboration with TOTO, the celebration embraced Japanese culture through traditional delicacies, whisky and sake, personalised calligraphy experiences and specially curated gifts.
The evening featured speeches by LTAA board members reflecting on the association's achievements, growing community, and upcoming initiatives. Highlights included LTAA's interdisciplinary programmes, strategic partnerships, its upcoming participation in London Build Expo 2026 as the year's final event, and, most notably, its recognition as a finalist in the Diversity & Inclusion Initiative of the Year category at the London Construction Awards 2026.
The celebration was further honoured by Ambassador Associate Professor Dr Hasan Ulusoy, First-Class Consul General of Turkey in London, who emphasised the importance of professional organisations, and Kazuki Osugi, General Manager at TOTO Europe UK, who reflected on the longstanding friendship and collaboration between Japan and Turkey.
Building on three years of collective progress, LTAA remains committed to advancing professional development, interdisciplinary collaboration and cultural exchange, while strengthening the visibility and influence of the Turkish architectural and design community in London and the UK.
