Two of our projects have made this years RIBA Regional Awards Shortlist. Saltmarsh House on the Isle of Wight, a steel framed pavilion that floats above a meadow of wild grasses. The simple house includes a long living and dining hall framed by three smaller spaces: a kitchen, a bedroom, and a bathroom, and The WongAvery Gallery, a music practice and performance space for Trinity Hall, Cambridge.
Niall attended the Natural History Museum VIP opening of Hintze Hall and the introduction of Hope – the new blue whale skeleton suspended from Alfred Waterhouse’s wrought iron roof structure.
This new exhibit marks a new chapter in the Museum’s engagement with the public on scientific issues. Meanwhile Dippy the Dinosaur has embarked on a UK-wide tour which will culminate in the skeleton being cast in bronze before taking up its new home in the NMLA-designed Museum grounds.
The first phase of this project involves the restoration and introduction of accessibility to the Museum’s famous main entrance and is due to complete in November 2017.
