Entitled Wandering Routes, a selection of Niall’s sketches and drawings for the Alzheimer’s Respite Centre in Dublin are featured alongside a transcript of a conversation with Tina di Carlo and Olivia Horsfall Turner.

World Architecture Festival 2015 will bring together over 2,000 architects and designers to Singapore for 3 days of presentations, debates and celebration. On the 4th November Niall will be taking part in a debate to discuss ‘why and how can architecture be discussed in terms of aesthetics? What does the practice of architecture contribute to the discourse of the aesthetic? And, are aesthetic values ‘eternal’ or contingent?’ On the main stage Niall will also be taking part in a presentation on Designing for Age.
