We are delighted that our building Tapestry in Kings Cross has won an RIBA Regional Award. The building is located at the southwest corner of the North Site at King’s Cross Central and forms part of a 67 acre redevelopment in central London.
Tapestry contains open market and affordable apartments, a multi-use games area, a cafe/restaurant, an energy centre, a retail unit and a multi-storey car park.
Preparations for Biennale Architettura 2016 have begun in earnest: concepts advanced; collaborators recruited; designs developed. Niall and Yeoryia (Manolopoulou, of AY Architects) have met with a number of experts on the subject of dementia and design, including scientists at UCL; the Centre Manager at the Alzheimer’s Centre in Dublin; the Vice-Chair of the European Working Group of People with Dementia and experts from the Dementia Services Development Centre at the University of Stirling. We are excited by the emerging details of the various elements of this year’s exhibition, and look forward to unveiling our contribution in May.
