The result of a competition, this scheme encompasses the refurbishment and extension of an existing art gallery and museum. The extension creates an inviting new front to the gallery, whilst the glazed arcade and sweep of steps complete the enclosure of the square. This is a successful civic building and makes a real contribution to the public realm. It transforms the historic centre of Coventry and links a busy street with the quieter spaces of the square and cathedral.
