Niall is taking part in a collaborative lecture at the Royal Academy on the 22nd October alongside Laura Lee, the Chief Executive of Maggie’s Centers and Clod Ensemble. The talk titled Embodying space: Can architecture create a palcebo effect, will look at how our physical relationship to the spaces we inhabit affects our health and experiences of care.
Niall McLaughlin Architects’ housing project in Whitechapel for the Peabody Trust will start on site at the end of the month. The project makes use of an infill site on the existing Victorian Peabody Trust estate. The scheme completes the courtyard enclosure formed by the existing blocks whilst retaining ‘open corners’. This strategy prompts easy pedestrian access and views between the courtyard and surrounding streets.
