Tom Noonan describes how, for this award‐winning project, he took up the pen and developed a hybrid drawing technique that exploited the benefits of both the analogue and the digital ‐ characterised by the tactility of the hand and the precision of the computer. He explains that a preoccupation with representation was further ‘reflected and supported by the programme, narrative and language of the architecture’.
