STIRLING PRIZE SHORTLIST MEDIA COVERAGE

SEPTEMBER 2013

In a conversation on BBC Radio 4‘s Front Row, journalist and broadcaster Tom Dyckhoff has described this year’s Stirling Prize shortlist as representing “a completely new outlook on architecture…the voice of a new generation.” Together with architect and chair of the judges Philip Gumunchidan, the two critics reflected on what the shortlist says about the state of British architecture and the growing appetite for commissioning innovative contemporary buildings. During the broadcast, Front Row’s John Wilson described the chapel as an “absolutely stunningly beautiful” geometric structure.

WOLFSON BUILDING EXTENSION COMPLETE

JANUARY 2013

The extension and refurbishment of the Wolfson Building in Oxford is now complete. The Grade II Listed building, originally designed by Arup Associates in the 1960s, forms part of Somerville College in Oxford. The extension provides the college with additional gathering space in the hall on the ground floor and gives the building a clearer presence on the College’s main quadrangle.
