On the 9th September, Niall will give the RIBA Lecture to the Oxford Presentation Trust at St Luke’s Chapel in Oxford. He will discuss his personal involvement with the city of Oxford and present his perspective on how to create contemporary architecture in that context.
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.
