RIBA President speaks at
Nightingale event
01 December 2008
Nightingale Associates’ Senior Directors enjoyed a presentation from RIBA president, Sunand Prasad, at their quarterly Senior Directors Forum last week.
Prasad has been president of RIBA since September 2007 and is a founding partner of Penoyre & Prasad, an architectural practice known for designing a diverse range of award-winning buildings.
Prasad’s presentation, entitled “Will Nightingales sing in Portland Place?” provided a unique insight into the relationship between architecture and climate change. The presentation focused on how architects have a high level of influence and responsibility in ensuring that worldwide targets to combat the inevitable effects of climate change are met.
Prasad also gave a brief presentation of some of his recently completed projects, including the unique and distinctive Moorfields Eye Hospital, which also features in his new book, ‘Transformations’.
“It was a pleasure to have Sunand Prasad as guest at one of our Forums. His presentation was very well received by our Senior Directors and provided interesting and thought-provoking topics for discussion.”
Richard Harrington, Executive Chairman of Nightingale Associates
Every three months, Nightingale Associates holds forums that give Senior Directors the opportunity to meet to discuss strategy and ideas across the practice.
