ARCH-IVE INTERVIEW

JUNE 2020

On Tuesday 23rd June at 19.00, Arch-ive will be speaking to Níall McLaughlin about the literature that has influenced his practice, as part of the Architecture Foundation’s ‘100 Day Studio’.

Arch-ive is an online platform that investigates the books that have been influential to leading practitioners. It aims to showcase architects’ relationship to books and the way they utilise, interrogate, and display architectural resources.

The ‘live’ interview will take a slightly different format, focusing on specific buildings completed by Níall McLaughlin and the literature that surrounded their investigation. The discussion will focus initially on the Alzheimer’s Respite Centre in Dublin and Níall McLaughlin Architect’s work at the 2016 Venice Biennale, ‘Losing Myself’. Secondly, the conversation will focus on three projects from Níall’s early career, ‘The Shack’, ‘Phototropic’, and ‘Wandsworth House’. Finally, we will discuss ‘Bishop Edward King Chapel’ in Oxford.

DESIGN FOR DEMENTIA

Design For Dementia

An article on dementia has been written by Sarah Wilson for the City Metric Online. The piece looks at how innovative home design could revolutionise dementia care and even slow down symptoms. It draws on our projects Losing Myself created for the Venice Biennale 2016 and the Alzheimer’s Respite Centre in Dublin on approaching dementia friendly design.
