Niall took part in the event We Built this City, which was created to raise awareness and celebrate the contribution Irish people have made to the built and cultural fabric of London, from historic to contemporary times. Niall’s contribution titled ‘London Made Me’ looked at the role of the city as a place of emancipation for the immigrants from around the world.
Tim Hunt from Argent gives an update on the progress being made on site at the Tapestry (T1) Building at Kings Cross. The building is roughly half way through the construction programme and will soon start to be clad in beautifully ornate terracotta coloured concrete panels. The video shows the impressive views across the city as well as the relationship of the building to nearby landmarks including Regent’s Canal and Gas Holder Number 9. Tim also gives an update on the wider area which is an exciting and rapidly regenerating part of London.
Tapestry is Niall McLaughlin Architects’ largest project to date, the team completed their role as Concept Architect for the project and now have continued involvement as a part of the Client Monitoring Team.
