Niall McLaughlin has spoken on the themes surrounding two of the practice’s recent projects, the Athletes‘ Housing for the London Olympics and the Bishop Edward King Chapel in Oxfordshire, at an event hosted by the Building Centre in London. The evening was entitled “Concrete Elegance – Exploring Light and Spatial Creativity.”
The April edition of the Architectural Review features an article on the Bishop Edward King Chapel, written by Peter Salter. The article contains images by Dennis Gilbert, with a detailed view of the branched timber structure on the magazine’s cover. The review describes the Chapel as a “subtle synthesis of nature and the sacred” with Salter concluding that the project is a reflective and sensitive response to the “spiritual challenge of this commission.”
