Darbishire Place, our housing project in Whitechapel for the Peabody Trust, will be open to the public on the 17th September as part of Open House London 2016. Niall McLaughlin Architects will be provide guided tours of the building, which was shortlisted for the 2015 Stirling Prize.
The practice is delighted to have won the competition for a new development within Jesus College, Cambridge. The practice secured the appointment from among a strong short-list that that included Wright & Wright, Haworth Tompkins and Cullinan Studio.
The project forms the first part of a three-phase development, to create a new outward-facing research centre for the College that includes a communications facility and 150-seater auditorium. The scheme involves the reordering and renovation of the site’s existing buildings and incorporates the western half of the historic Wesley House.
Work is due to start on site early next year.
