On the 25th November Níall will be giving a lecture at the 40th Piran Days of Architecture in Slovenia. The theme for the event was Context. Concept. Consensus. The weekend conference is also tied in with the Piranesi International Architecture Award of which Níall will also be judging. National and student selectors will nominate 55 completed architectural projects from 11 Central European countries and 38 student projects from 19 architectural faculties, which will be presented at a joint exhibition.
RIBA SOUTH AWARD WINNERS
MAY 2022
We are delighted that 2 of our Oxford project, the Catherine Hughes Building and Master's Field Development, have been awarded a RIBA South Regional Award. Holly Galbraith, practice associate and project architect for the Master's Field Development was also awarded RIBA South Project Architect of the Year.
The Catherine Hughes Building was commented as managing " to strike the delicate balance between a carefully considered and cleverly modelled response to context, and a clear architectural identity and consistent language of its own."
The RIBA judges also commented on the Masters Field Development as a " significant addition to the edge of the urban centre of Oxford, comprising 228 bedrooms along roughly 200m of streetscape in total. It also represents the development of a sophisticated visual and constructional language that allows for the degree of repetition and subtle variation that is both necessary and appropriate for a single building project of this size and in this context."
