Philippa Simpson, Director of Buildings and Renewal, remarks, 'The Barbican is a world-renowned multi-arts centre, an icon of Brutalist architecture but it's equally famous for being difficult to navigate, particularly for new visitors.' This highlights the unique design challenges the centre faces, as navigating its multi-layered structure poses difficulties for its users.
Despite multiple interventions over the decades that made very real improvements, visitors still frequently highlight wayfinding as a source of confusion. The wayfinding project will play a major role in enhancing the Centre's functionality and reinforcing its identity as a global hub for the arts.
