Before Memmo my notes were scattered across PDFs. Now a workspace pulls everything into one place — I see exactly what's still left to study.
Gypsies and Travellers once followed routes passed down from generation to generation, returning to the same stopping places in tandem with the seasons and opportunities for work.
Now, stopping places are practically non-existent, and sites are often placed in environmentally hazardous areas - near motorways, industrial estates, and railroad tracks. This threatens their itinerant lifestyles and cultural heritage, and poses significant health risks to sites' residents.
Roaming Britain guides readers through the long history of nomadic living in Britain. It explores how this way of life manifested in the communities' homes - both moveable and static - from tents and wagons, to trailers and sites, to bricks and mortar. Looking beyond the elaborate decorations of traditional caravans, it showcases the adaptability, ingenuity, and resilience shared by Gypsy and Traveller communities, and how this informs their creative practices.
Brought to life with stunning archival photography and research, the book is both a celebration of the rich history of nomadic communities in Britain, and an interrogation of how architects, planners and the built environment can better serve them.
Features:
Photo essay by Romani artist Corrina Eastwood
Design strategy by Irish Traveller architect Darren Ward
Previously unpublished material from archives across the UK, including the RIBA Collections.
With a foreword from Friends, Families and Travellers.
'A comprehensive summary of the history of the travelling communities in Britain, which explains the value of stopping places and how restricting them erodes the sense of identity and the value of these excluded cultures. It makes it clear that planners should pay attention to culturally appropriate environments and buildings, with Gypsy, Roma and Traveller design committees as part of the system.' - Baroness Janet Whitaker
Before Memmo my notes were scattered across PDFs. Now a workspace pulls everything into one place — I see exactly what's still left to study.
Memmo's summaries are gold before exams. I don't have to re-read 800 pages two weeks before — just the important parts.
The AI chat has saved me the night before an exam more than once. I just keep asking until I get it — no waiting on a study group to reply.
The quizzes hit exactly what I need to know. Memmo tracks what I get stuck on — so I only practice what's worth it.
Flashcards with spaced repetition are magic. Memmo knows when I'm about to forget something and brings it back.
The AI podcasts are my favorite. I listen on my way to school and get a recap without sitting at a computer.
