Treasure
This winning entry was designed for a high-profile building within
a highly sensitive historic setting in the south east of England. The
building creates a new threshold to a major visitor destination.
By working with the natural contours of the site, the bulk and impact
of the building is substantially reduced.
The building was conceived as a cut in the ground. It combines a
large archive facility with a visitor centre. It has to handle large
visitor numbers at peak times, while providing a quiet setting for
archive visitors and readers.
