INTERNATIONAL RUGBY EXPERIENCE ON TV

October 2024

We were excited to learn that our International Rugby Experience building in Limerick has been featured on Episode 1 of Dermot Bannon’s Super Spaces, a television programme in Ireland focusing on well-designed spaces for living, working, socialising and play. The famous Irish architect meets Paul O’Connell, Irish rugby legend and Chair of the Board for the project. Together they engage in the rugby experience and admire the architecture. “This building could be described as a cathedral to rugby — and rugby is a religion for some people,” Paul says before joking about the volume of visits from “architectural nerds”!

A short clip from the broadcast is available on our website here.

Niall McLaughlin took part in a live discussion evening at the RIBA, chaired by the Observer architecture critic Rowan Moore. The event brought together the six practices shortlisted for this year’s Stirling Prize, to reflect on their individual entries and to participate in a wider conversation about British architecture. The panel discussed the stories behind the projects and took questions from the audience.
