Niall will be taking part in a talk alongside Kim Wilkie and Audrey Carden on the 17th September at the Design Centre Chelsea Harbour to discuss the changing face of architecture and design in a decade that’s been described as a new ‘golden age of the English country house’. The event will be chaired by Interiors Editor, Giles Kime.
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.”
