Teamed with Scott Brownrigg, Niall McLaughlin Architects have been shortlisted for the LSE 44 Lincolns Inn Field redevelopment competition. Also on the shortlist are AL_A, David Chipperfield Architects, Diller Scofidio + Renfro with Penoyre & Prasad, Grafton Architects and Herzog & de Meuron.
Niall McLaughlin has written an essay for the Architects Journal titled ‘A Lifetime of Renewal’. He explains his view that ‘it should no longer be possible for an architect to finish their education. I propose a more comprehensive model of life-long learning. If practitioners return to education throughout their careers, they will be constantly invigorated and, by extension, so will the schools to which they return’.
