BIENNALE ARCHITETTURA 2016 WEBSITE LAUNCH
MAY 2016
The website has now been launched for our project for this years Irish pavilion at the 15th international architecture exhibition of La Biennale di Venezia. It documents the research and design in a series of interdisciplinary conversations with experts across a range of fields – neuroscientists, psychologists, health workers, philosophers and anthropologists – as well as people with dementia and their families. It will collate stories of personal interactions with dementia and record the process of developing our central Venice installation.

UCL SUMMER SHOW
JUNE 2015
The Bartlett Summer Show 2015 opens from the 26th June until the 11th July at The Bartlett School of Architecture, 140 Hampstead Road, London NW1 2BX. The show is one of the world’s biggest architecture degree shows presenting work from over 500 students. Niall teaches Unit 17 with Yeoryia Manolopoulou and Michiko Sumi.
These images show students from Unit 17 – taught by Niall, Yeoryia and Michiko – preparing for the show and installing their collective model. Each student designed a building in Leicester based upon a theme that asked them to re-imagine a regional British city in the light of the Government’s new proposals for devolved powers. The model is interactively linked to an array of mobile phones mounted around the edge that show short films of the students describing their work in detail.
