The Victoria and Albert Museum in London released images of the seven design proposals put forward by the teams shortlisted in the Exhibition Road Design Competition.
The extension project will provide a purpose-built new gallery in which to present the V&A’s high-profile program of temporary exhibitions, a courtyard set within the beautiful historic facades of the V&A’s Grade 1 listed buildings and a new entrance on Exhibition Road through the Aston Webb screen. The new gallery will be below street level with a courtyard above that will house a café and be used for installations and events.
The Jury will review the proposals in mid-March and a winner will be announced at the end of the month.
