Níall McLaughlin Architects will be speaking at the Architecture Big Event in Leicester on 1st October alongside Sir Peter Cook and Piers Taylor. The programme for the event at De Montfort University will include a range of activities exclusively for the school of architecture and will include a design charrette.
On the 26th of May Niall joined architect Will Alsop, and poets Katharine Kilalea and Matthew Gregory at the RIBA for a discussion on whether poetry and architecture can together reveal something new about our contemporary experience of space. How do the two art forms inform each other, and what can poetry and architecture and their intersection tell us about modern habits and habitation? The event was curated by Catherine Hamilton from the arts association Store. Niall’s piece ‘My Portfolio in Poems’ looked at particular poems that directly influenced his projects.
