Curator Jane Withers, a design consultant and co-founder of Wonderwater, has selected five projects to illustrate architecture and design’s role in changing river usage, challenging our attitude to the urban water environment.

The Urban Plunge exhibition will display drawings, models and photography that document these projects, including Denmark’s scheme to transform Copenhagen harbour into a cultural and social centre. The sculptural Harbour Baths (Julien De Smedt Architects) have already proved an incredible success in bringing new life to the area. Tredje Natur's House of Water project is a visionary idea for a new island for Copenhagen harbour, dedicated to education about water and the environment.
