Niall will give a talk to the Architectural Association of Ireland in Dublin. The lecture will look at all new projects including the Peabody Housing at Whitechapel, The Theatre at Worcester College in Oxford and the Tapestry Building at King’s Cross in London.
The new Carmelite Chapel for the Discalced Friars in Clarendon Street, Dublin is now complete. The Chapel forms part of St. Teresa’s Church and Priory and uses a pared-back post-and-beam framework to create a space which is conducive to prayer, song and private contemplation. The series of cross-laminated timber frames are turned at right angles to enclose the four sides of the space and form a woven structural lattice.
