On 25th June Niall McLaughlin Architects will open up our practice for the RIBA London Open Studios 2016 as part of the London Festival of Architecture. We moved into our new offices in Bedford House in 2015 and share the building alongside David Kohn Architects and Cousins & Cousins Architects who will also be opening their doors for this event.

Niall McLaughlin spoke at the latest All-Party Parliamentary Group meeting on Housing and Care for Older People, which was held at the House of Lords this month. The meeting explored the relationship between housing and dementia, with contributions from invited architects, academics and practitioners in the field.
The aim of the APPG, which was set up in 2009 and is chaired by Lord Richard Best, is to highlight the importance of the role of housing, alongside social care and health, in the development of support and services for older people. The forum aims to encourage an integrated approach to care for the elderly in relation to these three areas and provide a forum for setting government agenda.
