The café pavilion that we designed in collaboration with Peter Brett Associates for Jesus College Cambridge has been shortlisted in the Structural Awards 2017. Now in it’s 50th year, the Structural Awards celebrate the world’s most outstanding structural engineering achievements, celebrating excellence through exemplary engineering solutions. Winners will be announced on the 17th November.
Preparations for Biennale Architettura 2016 have begun in earnest: concepts advanced; collaborators recruited; designs developed. Niall and Yeoryia (Manolopoulou, of AY Architects) have met with a number of experts on the subject of dementia and design, including scientists at UCL; the Centre Manager at the Alzheimer’s Centre in Dublin; the Vice-Chair of the European Working Group of People with Dementia and experts from the Dementia Services Development Centre at the University of Stirling. We are excited by the emerging details of the various elements of this year’s exhibition, and look forward to unveiling our contribution in May.
