<img src="http://dugganmorrisarchitects.com/images_site/auto-thumbs/feature/news_featured/Brentford.jpg" alt="Brentford News" /><p> </p>
<p>A reserved matters planning application for Brentford Lock West has been submitted to London Borough of Hounslow. The application covers a submission by three architectural practices (Duggan Morris Architects, Karakusevic Carson and Riches Hawley Mikhail) and landscape architects Camlins, for Phase 1 of a multi-phase development site.</p>
<p>The Duggan Morris Architects scheme consists of 45 residential units fronting onto the canalside and split over 2 plots. The buildings are conceived as cranked blocks following a meandering neighbourhood street held together by a large base plinth. The blocks are designed as a pair, both following a series of simple rules. The predominant building material is brick, whilst a subtle play with the details defines positions of windows and balconies.</p>
<p>The project was won through competition in September 2011.</p>

The projects were developed as a suite of buildings in reaction to a very tight programme and were funded by The Cooking Spaces Project - a fund set up to unite creativity with health and hygiene.</p>
<p>The project for Virgo Fidelis places a new freestanding multi-use pavilion within a clearing in an orchard, facilitating community events, creative enterprise and hospitality. The project at Westwood School, by contrast, is an extension to an existing dining and assembly area which is connected to an existing food catering space. The new building is elevated above the ground plane on stilts, and takes advantage of the magnificent views across the rolling landscape beyond. The area will also facilitate multiple uses, dining, seminars and will promote new healthy menus.</p>Thu, 19 Jan 2012 00:00:00 +0000Thu, 19 Jan 2012 00:00:00_79 +0000Planning Application - Richmond Adult Community College
http://dugganmorrisarchitects.com/latest-news/2012-01/Planning-Application-Richmond-Adult-Community-College
<img src="http://dugganmorrisarchitects.com/images_site/auto-thumbs/feature/news_featured/RACC_Courtyard.jpg" alt="RACC_Courtyard" /><p>Duggan Morris Architects has submitted a planning application for the new Arts and Education Wing to the Richmond Adult Community College campus (RACC). The commission was won through an invited competition in October 2011 and consists of a combination of new build and refurbishment components to introduce a new theatre, art and ceramics department, a reception area and a new central cloister as well as general teaching spaces. Further aspects include a proposed 'life skills' department, located within converted 1960's modernist local authority office building.</p>
<p>The site is located on the edge of a belt of Metropolitan Open Land (MOL) and situated within a local conservation area. The resultant scheme proposes a cluster of simple cubic forms of varying mass and height, wrapped in a softly textured brick skin and articulated with over sized picture windows and topped with metallic roof level lanterns. These new elements are intended to contrast the setting of the imposing original Edwardian school building which houses much of the general education space on the campus.</p>
<p>It is planned that the scheme is deliverable as a phased plan of works, to alleviate the impact and disruption of the scheme on the workings and viability of the site.</p>Wed, 18 Jan 2012 00:00:00 +0000Wed, 18 Jan 2012 00:00:00_78 +0000Winner - RIBA Manser Medal

<img src="http://dugganmorrisarchitects.com/images_site/auto-thumbs/feature/news_featured/Mansel-Road-Rear-View.jpg" alt="Mansel Road Rear View" /><p>Duggan Morris Architects have commenced planning consultation with the London Borough of Merton to create 25,000sqft of contemporary office space delivered as part of the Low Carbon Workplace initiative, and in partnership with Threadneedle and Stanhope. The project requires the retention and substantial remodelling of a 1960's concrete and steel frame building located close to the centre of Wimbledon, and includes a number of light weight extensions and additions. A full planning application is due in August 2011.</p>
<p>Low Carbon Workplace works with companies to measure, reduce and certify their in-use office emissions. Through its exclusive partnership with Threadneedle Asset Management and Stanhope Plc, Low Carbon Workplace provides high quality low carbon office space tailored to individual companies' requirements and supports occupiers to minimise their emissions in-use through a package of occupier support.</p>
<p>The objectives of the 'scheme' and the 'trust' are simple; refurbish an outdated, down at heel, 1960's office building to create relevant and contemporary office space designed to meet exacting environmental standards developed in a holistic, simple and integrated manner. in this way, the building needs to reject 'clip on' solutions for those which favour a higher degree of integration such as insulation, draught-proofing and the use of healthy materials.</p>
<p>When creating energy efficient solutions for buildings, the quality of any architeecture should not be compromised by the inclusion of environmental systesm. Thus, an approach to incorporate 'Passive Systems' is to be promoted, including such things as;</p>
<p>-Air tightness</p>
<p>- High performance insulation</p>
<p>- Passive ventilation</p>
<p>- Natual Light and thermal mass</p>
<p>- Energy efficient artificial lighting solutions</p>
<p>- Smart metering equipment</p>
<p>Flow regulators on all sanitary appliances</p>
<p>- Water collection, harvesting and SUDS</p>Sun, 31 Jul 2011 00:00:00 +0000Sun, 31 Jul 2011 00:00:00_70 +0000Awards - Kings Grove

<img src="http://dugganmorrisarchitects.com/images_site/auto-thumbs/feature/news_featured/Hampstead-03.jpg" alt="Hampstead lane 03" /><p>3A Hampstead Lane has been long listed for the RIBA Manser Medal. The RIBA Manser Medal shortlist is announced at the Stirling Dinner and presented at a separate event. The objective of the RIBA Manser Medal has always been to encourage innovation in house design, to show how social and technological ambitions can be met by intelligent design and to produce exemplars to be taken up by the wider house-building industry.</p>
<p>Ruth Reed, RIBA President, said:</p>
<p>"The best new private homes are those designed by an architect to meet the client's personal needs and aspirations and add real value to the homeowner's life and happiness.</p>
<p>This year's longlist for the RIBA Manser Medal in association with HSBC Private Bank recognises some truly exceptional and exciting private houses, with projects located in the farthest reaches of the UK. On the Hebridean Isle of Coll and on the shingle shore of Dungeness young architects have brought old buildings back to life as new homes. In Brecon and Suffolk architects have created exceptionally daring houses with cantilevered floors and structural tricks aplenty. The results - our longlist - are breathtaking, and should lead to the best ever shortlist."</p>
<p>The RIBA Manser Medal 2011 longlist has been chosen from winners of an RIBA Award. The shortlist for the medal will be announced on 8 September 2011 and the winner will be announced on 10 November 2011 at a prestigious prize ceremony at the RIBA.

<p class="Body">Duggan Morris Architects has submitted a planning application for a New Learning Centre, on the Maudsley Hospital Campus of the South London and Maudsley NHS Trust, on Denmark Hill. The client, SLaM NHS Trust Charitable Funds, is a charitable foundation which invests in projects to support world class mental health and well being, support, training and development. The project has been informed and developed through an 18 month immersion process involving research and building visits as well as extensive consultation with SLaM user groups, Kings College Hospital, the Institute of Psychiatry and community groups, with DMA commissioned to develop the client’s brief which was summarized through a series of ‘Vision Statements’.</p>
<p class="Body">The new 1,550sqm building will house teaching and learning facilities, cafe, exhibition and ancillary spaces. The central focus of this unique project, coined ‘Project Learning Potential’, is to create a totally immersive learning environment through networking, social media and Wi-Fi technologies such that each individual user can tune the learning process to his/her needs to obtain the maximum results.</p>
<p class="Body">A key vision for the new building is to destigmatise preconceptions of mental health and well being, by making it more accessible to the wider community, sharing with the campus a vision which includes doctors, nurses, teachers, service users and carers in promoting an integrated learning environment; ‘learning for anyone, anywhere, anytime’.</p>

http://dugganmorrisarchitects.com/latest-news/2011-04/The-Cooking-Spaces-Project
<img src="http://dugganmorrisarchitects.com/images_site/auto-thumbs/feature/news_featured/Virgo.jpg" alt="Virgo" /><p> </p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">Duggan Morris Architects has obtained planning permission to develop proposals for of a number of secondary schools in Croydon. </p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">The Cooking Spaces Project is part of a wider government focus to promote health and well-being and to expand the experience of cooking beyond the Key Stage 3 statutory requirements.The programme is looking to encourage a ‘seed to plate’ approach to the teaching curriculum. Allotments are encouraged as well as links to food hospitality. As such the projects are looking towards Hospitality Diplomas, BTEC catering and IBCAS enterprising programmes. The projects have very strict budgets and all funds must be expended by September 2011. </p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">The construction works need to impact as little as possible on the day to day activities. As such the solution was to find construction technologies which involve minimum time on site using fast track assembly systems and dry construction methods. Each school is simple in form constructed from metal structurally insulated panels and a metal profile deck roof forming the enclosure; a system commonly used to construct cold stores. Each building is then wrapped in a simple decorative mesh.</p>
<p class="MsoPlainText">The projects are due to commence construction in May.</p>

<img src="http://dugganmorrisarchitects.com/images_site/auto-thumbs/feature/news_featured/Ferrari-news.jpg" alt="Ferrari" /><p> </p>
<p class="Body">RIBA London is coordinating a series of window installation projects with the Regent Street Association and media partner ELLE Decoration. Duggan Morris Architects are collaborating with Ferrari S.p.A and Pipers to develop a window display focusing on the theme 'Cities of Tomorrow'.</p>
<p class="Body">The concept is to take components of the Ferrari engine and display them as a ‘city fragment’ out of scale with its actual purpose, encouraging a different reading of the object. A variety of scenarios are proposed from a city landscape connected by a large circulatory device to a manufacturing plant. </p>
<p class="Body"> The juxtaposition of buildings with highly engineered components will aim to speculate on the future of architecture and the diversity high precision engineering brings to it, speculating on solutions to population density, energy manufacture and public realm.</p>
