More Space for Architecture features buildings and projects designed by Sheila O’Donnell and John Tuomey over the seven year period from 2015 to 2021. Unbuilt and unpublished designs act like stepping stones to trace a continuous path between recent and realised works for schools, universities, housing, artist collaborations and public buildings. Context-sensitive buildings on complex and difficult sites in Dublin, Cork and Budapest are explained from conceptual sketches to completion. Competition-winning projects under construction include the Victoria and Albert Museum and Sadler’s Wells Dance Theatre, both currently on site in London’s East Bank, the new Academic Hub in TU Dublin’s city centre campus and the School of Architecture at Liverpool University.

The book also features a collection of reflective essays by the architects, which include a selection of O’Donnell’s characteristic watercolour studies, expanding on ideas aired in public lectures and developed in studio conversations.

This book is a companion volume to the earlier monograph Space for Architecture, first published by Artifice Press in 2014.
