Mirrors of Society is a temporary and experimental reduced version of the UK parliament, in essence a new typology of debating chamber to host the parliamentary duties during the renovation of the Westminster Palace. The project is an invitation to rethink our institutions, their traditions, rituals and the buildings in which they are accommodated.

The building is integrated within a park, where public and private circulation are intertwined to promote engagement with politics through the act of walking. Inspired by feminist theories, Carlota explores how parliamentary architecture can be a mirror of society and questions which society does the current building address. Focusing on the idea that when parliament was built there were no female politicians and many of its spaces are outdated, the project envisions a more inclusive space for both the public and members of parliament.

The scheme is designed to be experimental and temporary. Although these attributes can be seen as unstable, Carlota proposes to view the ephemeral as demanding for action.
