Two of our projects have been awarded both Regional and National RIBA Awards. The Fishing Hut in Hampshire which is a shelter and tackle store for anglers to fish on the river and Darbishire House on the Whitechapel Estate for Peabody is low-cost housing comprising 13 social rented units in 1/2/3 and 4-bed configurations.
On the 26th of May Niall joined architect Will Alsop, and poets Katharine Kilalea and Matthew Gregory at the RIBA for a discussion on whether poetry and architecture can together reveal something new about our contemporary experience of space. How do the two art forms inform each other, and what can poetry and architecture and their intersection tell us about modern habits and habitation? The event was curated by Catherine Hamilton from the arts association Store. Niall’s piece ‘My Portfolio in Poems’ looked at particular poems that directly influenced his projects.
