A very special afternoon in Liverpool with the team from to celebrate the opening of their new exhibition, Immersions, at North, in Liverpool.
Commissioned to celebrate Niall as the recipient of the 2026 Royal Gold Medal, the exhibition explores the practice’s approach to architecture – one defined by a deep sensitivity to place, material, craft, light and form.
Hot on the heels of winning the Gold Medal, NMLA announced it had won a competition to design a major new cathedral in Sydney (head to for more info) - so our trip to Liverpool had to include a visit to Frederick Gibberd’s masterful scheme as well - we were lucky to stumble upon The Sixteen Choir in rehearsal ahead of their performance that evening.
Immersion is open from today until 7 June and is free to visit.
