From
an international field of architects, Gareth Hoskins Architects were the only
Scottish practice chosen as one of 8 shortlisted for the new Transport Museum
in Glasgow. GHA was one of the three practices invited to the final interview
and were narrowly beaten to second place by Zaha Hadid. The
shortlist for the competition included: Daniel Libeskind, Foster & Partners,
Gareth Hoskins, Grimshaw Architects, Pringle Richards Sharratt, Will Alsop,
Zaha Hadid Architects & Richard Rogers Partnership.
Our proposals put forward an idea for a striking
new museum building which, through the integration of its associated landscaping
and consideration of sense of arrival and place, forms a new public destination
within the Glasgow Harbour development that connects directly with its dramatic
riverside setting.
