Published requirement description

The National Gallery is seeking to appoint a multidisciplinary design team to lead the NG200 Project. The project focuses on enhancing the arrival experience at the National Gallery and has an anticipated construction budget of £25-£30 million. The project will be delivered in phases over the next five years, with the initial phase delivered during the Gallery’s Bicentenary year, 2024.

The initial phase focuses on the Gallery’s Sainsbury Wing and works may include: remodelling the front gates, entry sequence and associated public realm; interior works to the lobby; limited remodelling of the first floor spaces; and upgrading the supporting facilities, notably visitor orientation and information, retail and security. Subsequent phases of the project may include further remodelling of the Sainsbury Wing interiors (excluding the second floor galleries); works to enhance the Portico on the Wilkins Building; further public realm works including Jubilee Walk; and a new Research Centre.
