The Stage has written a piece about our newly completed building for the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art. The article talks of the challenges of the site, the significantly improved facilities and the enthusiastic response from staff, students and alumni.
To celebrate the completion of this significant project, our office will be going to see Lamda’s production of Cyrano in the new Sainsbury Theatre in July.

Niall McLaughlin Architects and Purcell have won the competition to transform Auckland Castle in County Durham into a national museum of religion and religious art. The former historic home of the bishops of Durham, the castle is considered to be the third most historically significant ecclesiastical complex in Europe, after the Vatican and Avignon. Auckland Castle was bought by businessman and philanthropist Jonathan Ruffer who aims to turn it into a major visitor attraction and heritage site in the North East. The client hopes to receive funding from the Heritage Lottery Fund in support of the project and set up the Auckland Castle Trust to oversee the restoration and development of the castle and grounds. The central attraction will be the rare paintings by Spanish artist Francisco de Zurbarán, considered to be some of the most significant religious treasures in Europe and part of the castle’s history for more than 250 years.
