BUILDING THE BBC

Exhibition: Tuesday 5 August - Sunday 7 September 2003

The BBC is a British institution, still producing creative and informative programmes and services after 81 years. But it's about time Auntie Beeb had a facelift - a massive architectural adventure undertaken in the quest for buildings to match the modernity of programme output. Across the country, from Norwich and Leicester to Leeds and Glasgow, BBC buildings are being built, developed and designed. Building the BBC documents this ambitious three-year project, which concentrates on putting the BBC back into the heart of the community across the UK, demanding the highest quality architecture and design, and providing the best workspaces to inspire and motivate its staff.

Building the BBC: A Return to Form, published in June, Written by Nicola Jackson, formerly editor of World Architecture, is available in our shop for £19.99
