The bell for the Bishop Edward King Chapel has been cast at the Whitechapel Foundry. Niall McLaughlin Architects won RIBA competition to design the new chapel for Ripon Theological College in Oxfordshire in July 2009. The project is currently on site and due for completion in early 2013.
The extension and refurbishment of the Wolfson Building in Oxford has started on site. The Grade II Listed building, originally designed by Arup Associates in the 1960s, forms part of Somerville College.
Niall McLaughlin Architects’ Somerville College Student Accommodation for Oxford University has been awarded a RIBA Award 2012. The project was one of only 50 projects in the UK to win one of the prestigious awards.
RIBA President Angela Brady said of the winning schemes, ‘What really stands out is that even in times of austerity, we can still deliver amazingly clever, high quality buildings…these projects are truly exciting and inspiring.’
