ALWA and Ostick and Williams 2nd placed entry to Ireland House noted in the Belfast Newsletter:

Two projects designed by Northern Irish architecture practices have been recognised in the “Ireland Tokyo House Competition”, an international competition hosted by The Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade in conjunction with the Royal Institute of the Architects of Ireland to design buildings to host Ireland’s diplomatic presence in Japan. RSUA President, Donal MacRandal said:

“The success of local practices in this global competition is welcome recognition of the abundance of architectural quality available here. Practices in Northern Ireland are showing that they can compete at the highest levels with designs which reflect the ambitions of their clients. Whether it’s on the world stage or closer to home, design quality enhances projects large and small.”
