## Description
The Conservatory Vision is a major part of the Barbican Renewal project, focused on restoring and transforming the Barbican Conservatory into an accessible, sustainable, and vibrant public space that celebrates its original Brutalist design. Key works include the full replacement of the glazing and installation of a new louvre system for improved climate control, strengthening of structural frames, new staircases and lifts for access to upper balconies, and new waterproofing and floor build-ups. The project will also deliver a reconfigured internal layout with relocated planters, ponds, and walkways; upgraded mechanical, electrical, and horticultural systems; and refurbished event spaces, foyers, and visitor facilities. Improved lighting, accessibility features, and sustainable planting will enhance both public use and private event potential. By combining sensitive conservation with sustainable design and eco-brutalist landscaping, the revitalised Conservatory will become a welcoming green sanctuary in the heart of the City - honouring its heritage while ensuring its long-term future.
