Soane Masterpiece to be Transformed
17 Jul 2009
PRESS RELEASE Soane Masterpiece to be Transformed 17 July 2009 Jestico + Whiles has been successful in its bid to remodel Pitzhanger Manor and Walpole Park in the London Borough of Ealing. The nationally important Grade-I-listed building, designed by Sir John Soane and George Dance the Younger, will be sensitively restored and transformed into a world-class museum.
Jestico + Whiles is leading the core design team, working alongside exhibition designer Ralph Appelbaum Associates and landscape architect J & L Gibbons, supported by Julian Harrap Architects and Sarah Couch Historic Landscapes who are providing heritage advice. Engineers Ellis & Moore and environmental specialists King Shaw Associates complete the team.
Jestico + Whiles was selected, following a two-stage tender and interview process, from a shortlist of talented architects. Client Ealing Borough Council was particularly impressed by the team’s past experience and integrated approach to the building, landscape and interpretation design.
