Niall McLaughlin Architects are delighted that our project The Fishing Hut in Hampshire has made the shortlist for the Stephen Lawrence Prize. The prize is to award the best examples of projects that have a construction budget of less than £1million and was set up in the memory of Stephen Lawrence.
We have completed our housing project for the Peabody Trust in John Fisher Street in Whitechapel, London. 13 families now occupy the building. It was built on an empty site in Henry Derbyshire’s Peabody Estate from 1870. The building is made from brick with deep precast concrete reveals, framing large windows and balconies. It is a real pleasure to see the balconies occupied by plants, bikes and carpets; people hanging out the windows watching their children playing in the courtyard below.
