More Space for Architecture features a fascinating selection of buildings and projects designed by Sheila O-Donnell and John Tuomey over a seven-year period, from 2015 to 2021.
Unbuilt and unpublished designs act like stepping stones to trace a continuous path between a wide range of recent and realised works, which includes schools, universities, housing, artist collaborations and public buildings. Context-sensitive buildings on complex and difficult sites in Dublin, Cork and Budapest are outlined and presented in detail for the reader, from conceptual sketches through to completion. Competition-winning projects under construction include the highly public V&A East and Sadler-s Wells East, both currently on site at the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park in Stratford, London; the new Academic Hub in TU Dublin-s city centre campus; and the brand new extension at the School of Architecture at Liverpool University.
The book also features a collection of reflective essays
