The article refers to the international scientific symposium which took place in 2019 in the UK capital during the Open House London. The meeting of scholars from Warsaw and London was devoted to the assumptions of architectural literature studies and possibilities of developing this approach for research on Polish emigration in London. In the first part of the article Aleksandra Wójtowicz – an author of the approach of architectural literature studies – presents its assumptions and possibilities of implementation. She recalls the features of ‘difficult places’ – a category developed by Warsaw’s interdisciplinary team. She also mentions the principles of ‘re-imaginary architecture’ – Justyna Gorzkowicz’s proposal – referring to the category of reading identity places in exile. The second part of the article is devoted to the specics of Open House London. Justyna Gorzkowicz presents the characteristics of two Polish places that the symposium participants could get acquainted with during their visit to London: PUNO’s headquarters and Cezary Bednarski’s Vertically Detached Houses.
