We are delighted that Tapestry has been announced as one of the seven winners from 100 projects entered into this year’s Camden Design Awards. The awards celebrate and reward exceptional design being delivered in projects across all sectors of the built environment in the London Borough of Camden.
The judges commented “The building is the best so far on the Kings Cross estate and its elevations are the most special and accomplished of the 2017 awards”
Under the tile ‘Happy Ending’, Jan-Carlos Kucharek has reviewed the Chapel for Ripon Theological College in Oxfordshire. The article reflects on the conversations with the client to develop the design, together with the stories and architectural precedents that worked together to inform the building’s final form. Kucharek writes, “…there’s no questioning the positive effect of McLaughlin’s £2.6m chapel on the picturesque Ripon College, both functionally and aesthetically.” He goes on to describe the elliptical form, accessed on the diagonal between the long and short axes, as “a master stroke.”
