Biennale Architettura 2016 Website Launch

BIENNALE ARCHITETTURA 2016 WEBSITE LAUNCH

MAY 2016

The website has now been launched for our project for this years Irish pavilion at the 15^th 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.

DARBISHIRE PLACE, WHITECHAPEL PEABODY HOUSING

JANUARY 2015

We have completed our housing project for the Peabody Trust in John Fisher Street in Whitechapel, London. 13 families now occupy the building. It was built on an empty site in Henry Derbyshire’s Peabody Estate from 1870. The building is made from brick with deep precast concrete reveals, framing large windows and balconies. It is a real pleasure to see the balconies occupied by plants, bikes and carpets; people hanging out the windows watching their children playing in the courtyard below.
