A Landmark Celebration

There are few construction companies who can match Gilbert-Ash's portfolio of iconic buildings.

With Stirling Prize projects, world-famous learning centres and a place of worship which is also a temple of sustainability, our award-winning client has a collection of completed projects which are often second to none.

Therefore, when it came to launching the second volume of the publication which celebrates these iconic projects, we knew we needed a location fitting for such an unveiling.

Luckily Gilbert-Ash make friends wherever they go, and we had a number of iconic buildings we could turn to for the launch of Landmark Landscapes.

In 2023 Gilbert-Ash completed the largest redevelopment of the National Portrait Gallery in London since it opened in 1896.

The project earned architects, Jamie Fobert Architects and Purcell a shortlisting for this year’s RIBA Stirling Prize. We knew this was the perfect location for Gilbert-Ash to host the launch with renowned Northern Ireland artist, Colin Davidson as the special guest.

Colin’s portraits of Ed Sheeran and Sir Kenneth Branagh currently hang in the gallery, so we knew he was the perfect choice to add further prestige to this important event. We were proud to work on such an exclusive event in such a culturally significant building and to create a platform where Gilbert-Ash could be celebrated for their consistently excellent work.
