Two of our projects will be taking part in this year’s Open House. Our Stirling Prize shortlisted social housing scheme, Darbishire Place in Whitechapel, and the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art, will be opening their doors with architect led tours on the 21st September. Open House London is the world’s largest architecture festival, giving free public access to 800+ buildings, walks, talks and tours over one weekend in September.
Niall McLaughlin Architects are pleased to be continuing their work for Somerville College, Oxford with the design of the Oxford India Centre, which will house the Indira Gandhi Centre for Sustainable Development. The new building forms part of the redevelopment of the Radcliffe Observatory Quarter and is to be positioned at the north west corner of the College, adjacent to the new Blavatnik School of Government building designed by Herzog de Meuron. The design includes a theatre, exhibition and teaching space, new postgraduate accommodation, as well as a new archway entrance to the College.
