A LIFETIME OF RENEWAL

JULY 2015

A Lifetime of Renewal

Niall McLaughlin has written an essay for the Architects Journal titled ‘A Lifetime of Renewal’.  He explains his view that ‘it should no longer be possible for an architect to finish their education.  I propose a more comprehensive model of life-long learning.  If practitioners return to education throughout their careers, they will be constantly invigorated and, by extension, so will the schools to which they return’.

WE BUILT THIS CITY

JUNE 2015

Niall took part in the event We Built this City, which was created to raise awareness and celebrate the contribution Irish people have made to the built and cultural fabric of London, from historic to contemporary times.  Niall’s contribution titled ‘London Made Me’ looked at the role of the city as a place of emancipation for the immigrants from around the world.
