"The London Museum has awarded the circa £300,000 contract to fit out the space to IDK as the lead designers, working with Studio Bergini as the graphic designers. IDK was the firm that designed the racking display system used at V&A East Storehouse, if you want a hint of what the London Museum might take its clues from."
"At the basement level, former cold stores will be transformed into the working collections store. This will be adjacent to a publicly-accessible space, to be called Deep Time, offering visitors a way to access even more of the museum's seven-million strong collection."
"The museum has been converting a former Victorian meat market near Farringdon station into its new home, and the site also includes the 1960s concrete poultry market. The intention is that the Victorian buildings will house the museum's permanent collection, while the poultry market will be converted into an area for its temporary exhibitions."
The London Museum is converting a former Victorian meat market and 1960s poultry market near Farringdon station into its new home. Victorian buildings will house the permanent collection, while the poultry market becomes a temporary exhibition space. At basement level, former cold stores are being transformed into a working collections store adjacent to a publicly-accessible area called Deep Time, providing visitor access to the museum's seven-million-item collection. IDK leads the design team with Studio Bergini as graphic designers, supported by ZNA for lighting, Structure Workshop for structural engineering, and P3R for MEP engineering. The permanent galleries are expected to open by year-end, with the poultry market spaces opening in 2028.
