On the 11th November Niall will be speaking at the British School at Rome’s event ‘Clay, Terracotta and Brick in Art, Architecture, Archaeology’ at The Royal Society of Sculptors. He will be focusing on the use of bricks in 2 of our projects, The International Rugby Museum and Magdalene College Library.
We are happy to announce that our project Hampshire House has won a RIBA Regional Award.
The project is a new build house situated in a riverside setting in Hampshire. The client wanted to create a contemporary house with a connection to the surroundings. The house is arranged in a series of staggered volumes, which are conceived of as an entrance to the landscape. The spaces frame the three key views; meadows, lakes and gardens. In the centre is the top lit, double height kitchen, around which daily life revolves. The walls are flint quoined in Purbeck stone and the main frame is precast concrete. Windows and cladding are made from oak which is untreated and will weather to match the colour of the locally sourced stone and flintwork.
