Imperial War Museum

For over a decade the Imperial War Museum, London, has been working to rationalise its building, improve visitor facilities and enable the display of more items from the collections.

Alan Baxter is proud to have been part of the Museum’s masterplan, preparing and revising a comprehensive Conservation Management Plan, providing extensive design and project advice, supporting Lottery applications, and contributing to multiple pre-application negotiations and listed building consent and planning applications.

In the latest phase of its transformative masterplan, the Imperial War Museum has opened new Second World War and The Holocaust Galleries. The displays cover 3000m2 across two floors, making powerful use of sound and video to tell personal stories from over 80 countries.
