Wayward helped a London synagogue to explore the transformation of a disused flat, attached to the building, into a home for a Syrian refugee family of four.

It is easy to feel helpless when reading about the refugee crisis, and so we leapt at the chance to do something meaningful - putting our skills as designers to use. Here are some of the drawings we made.
