Description
The National Railway Museum Central Hall Design Competition seeks an outstanding integrated team to design a new centrepiece building and propose enhancements to some of the fabric, infrastructure and organisation of the existing museum buildings.The Central Hall will unite the core museum buildings, combining a new entrance experience with public-facing spaces for exhibition, orientation and reception.The circa 4,500 sqm building needs to seamlessly integrate with existing museum spaces and will feature a spectacular new 1,000 sqm gallery. The building has a GBP16.5 million construction budget.A series of significant upgrades to the existing buildings is also planned, with budgets identified for elements such as roofs, facade, demolitions, openings and services. These works have an associated construction budget of no more than GBP10 million. Depending on the post competition concept design, a proportion of these works may be undertaken by the appointed team for this project.
