The scheme transforms the tired 1960s office block, which sits in between an NCP car park and residential tower, into a new gallery space suitable for the art powerhouse Gagosian. The gallery is a significant contribution to Grosvenor’s vision for the rejuvenation of Grosvenor Hill, and an important step in the renewal of Mayfair. Externally, the podium is clad in handmade Roman bricks. Dependent on the level of daylight, the brickwork has a unique ephemeral appearance through the play of light, shadow and texture. Full height glass doors and large vitrine windows punctuate the façade, advertising the main gallery spaces and providing passers-by with glimpses of the gallery spaces.
