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.

A short film has been made about the practice and the design of the Tapestry Building, a large-scale mixed-use development on the edge of the Regent’s Canal in King’s Cross. The scheme forms one element in the wider regeneration of the 67-acre site adjacent to King’s Cross station and the Regent’s Canal.
In the film Niall McLaughlin describes the design influences behind the woven tapestry-like facade and places the building within a tradition of masonry buildings looking to imitate “the intensity and the enmeshed, thicket-like quality of tapestries” that goes back to the origins of architecture, where hanging tapestries were used to enclose space.
