Annalie Riches is part of one of four shortlisted teams for this competition set by The National Infrastructure Commission and Malcolm Reading.

“This two-stage competition is seeking inspirational yet realisable visions for the future of development within the arc encompassing four of the UK’s fastest-growing and most productive centres: Cambridge, Milton Keynes, Northampton and Oxford.”

Along with Jennifer Ross (Director at Tibbalds), Petra Marko (Co-Founder and Director, Marko&Placemakers), Sarah Featherstone (Co-Director, Featherstone Young) and Kay Hughes we will now be asked to develop proposals for the second stage of this exciting competition.

On this week – Mikhail Riches: Stories

We’re holding an exhibition on Clerkenwell Green from 28th-30th June, in which we’ll be sharing stories about recently commissioned projects, including: the second phase of the refurbishment of Park Hill in Sheffield and townhouses within the redevelopment of Television Centre at Wood Lane.

Mikhail Riches’ architecture is guided by in-depth investigation of the conditions of a site and the lives of the people that will use it. Understanding ‘the story of the project’ plays an important role in the practice’s design process, and is the foundation for all of our key architectural decisions. This exhibition explores those stories, and reveals how the practice has used them to generate and communicate its ideas.

The exhibition is part of the London Festival of Architecture and will be open from 10:00-18:00 from 28th-30th June.
