A case study of our Stirling Prize shortlisted project Darbisher Place has been included in the second edition of The Housing Design Handbook by David Levitt and Jo McCafferty. The book looks at a range of cases to illustrate the way that different issues in the design of housing have been approached and what makes successful housing design.
The Bishop Edward King Chapel was among the winners of the ‘The UK’s Best Modern Churches’ competition which celebrates the best churches built within the last 50 years, announced at a ceremony held at Lambeth Palace in London. The open competition was run by the National Churches Trust, in association with the Ecclesiastical Architects and Surveyors Association and the 20th Century Society.
Of the top ten selected winners, the Chapel for Ripon College was the most recent nomination, with eight of the ten built in the late 50s and early 60s. The scheme was described as “a treat to look at” and “architecturally elegant, with a lovely intimate reflective interior.”
