Arquitectura Viva has produced the first monograph on the practice titled 'Material Continuities'.

The monograph was launched at the AA bookshop on Bedford Square in London on the 10th July. You can visit the Architectura Viva website here.
Niall McLaughlin has written an essay for the Architects Journal titled ‘A Lifetime of Renewal’. He explains his view that ‘it should no longer be possible for an architect to finish their education. I propose a more comprehensive model of life-long learning. If practitioners return to education throughout their careers, they will be constantly invigorated and, by extension, so will the schools to which they return’.
