The Burrell Collection

Built

Refurbishment of the Burrell Collection in Glasgow, one of Europe’s finest museums housed in one of the very few Category-A listed post-war Scottish buildings.

The Burrell Collection underwent a comprehensive modernisation to increase the amount of exhibit space and improve its environmental performance.

The building was adapted and refurbished on a ‘Fabric First’ approach, while its power, heating and lighting systems were replaced with more efficient, sustainable technologies.

The renewed museum has achieved BREEAM Excellent and is one of the UK's most efficient buildings.
