Lucy Lavers, Judy Ovens and Suzanna Prizeman co-founded the architecture education charity Our Hut through which they deliver inspiring school and community projects focused on the built environment. Their previous book, Inventive Vents: A Gazetteer of London's Ventilation Shafts, was the legacy of a London-centered project and led to this Britain-wide investigation of ventilation shafts, Adventurous Vents. In addition to being educators, Judy Ovens and Suzanna Prizeman are art historians and Lucy Lavers is practicing architect with Thomas Lavers Architects.
