The Garden Museum by Dow Jones Architects
Dow Jones Architects renovated the Garden Museum housed in the old church of St. Mary at Lambeth, London.
While the historic structure remains untouched, the museum welcome visitors to a newly designed interior with a sequence of individual spaces for exhibitions, the permanent collection, education, café and shop.
The architect projected a free standing timber structure that fits into the existing church like an unexpected modernist puzzle box. The colors of the wood match the stone walls, camouflaging the just-arrived nature of the construction.
