Pre-cast concrete panels for our T1 project at Kings Cross are currently being manufactured at the Techrete factory in Ireland with installation of the first panels due to commence in the next week. Here are some ‘as struck’ images of the capital panels that will be fitted to the top of the piers.
Niall McLaughlin was the invited speaker at the Age UK Conference entitled ‘Later Life: Better Health and Care in Tough Times”. The subject of the talk was the role of the architect in designing for dementia, focusing on insights gain from the design of the Alzheimer’s Respite Centre in Dublin, as well as the practice’s consultation work for the London Borough of Camden in their design for new residential care homes. The lecture also touched on broader themes of how we develop spatial understanding and language from birth and how this abstract awareness is affected with the onset of Alzheimer’s Disease.
