On the evening of the 1st March Níall will be giving a lecture at the Britsh School at Rome titled ‘Archipelago’. It will deal with buildings we have designed in Britain and Ireland over the last decade. The lecture is in person but can also be watched online, you can register here.
We are happy to announce that our project Hampshire House has won a RIBA Regional Award.
The project is a new build house situated in a riverside setting in Hampshire. The client wanted to create a contemporary house with a connection to the surroundings. The house is arranged in a series of staggered volumes, which are conceived of as an entrance to the landscape. The spaces frame the three key views; meadows, lakes and gardens. In the centre is the top lit, double height kitchen, around which daily life revolves. The walls are flint quoined in Purbeck stone and the main frame is precast concrete. Windows and cladding are made from oak which is untreated and will weather to match the colour of the locally sourced stone and flintwork.
