On the 21st September Niall will be speaking at the 2017 AIA Colorado Practice + Design Conference in Keystone, Colorado. The annual conference is to inspire and educate the architectural community, celebrate excellence in design, and explore highly relevant practice topics through a series of insightful presentations on a wide range of issues.
Preparations for Biennale Architettura 2016 have begun in earnest: concepts advanced; collaborators recruited; designs developed. Niall and Yeoryia (Manolopoulou, of AY Architects) have met with a number of experts on the subject of dementia and design, including scientists at UCL; the Centre Manager at the Alzheimer’s Centre in Dublin; the Vice-Chair of the European Working Group of People with Dementia and experts from the Dementia Services Development Centre at the University of Stirling. We are excited by the emerging details of the various elements of this year’s exhibition, and look forward to unveiling our contribution in May.
