The Victoria & Albert Museum is a London<\/strong><\/em> landmark and an unmissable stop for someone visiting the British capital and loves art and culture \u2013 and as of today, architecture and exclusive design!\u00a0<\/strong>Amanda Levete<\/strong><\/em>, winner of the prestigious Stirling Prize, and her architecture agency AL_A led the museum\u2019s newest and largest overhauling project yet, and created its largest extension in a century.<\/p>\n

The 6,400 extra square meters brought by the new Exhibition Road Quarter<\/strong><\/em> feature not only a new gallery, but also an alternative entrance to the V&A Museum<\/strong><\/em>, a shop, a caf\u00e9 and a courtyard. The latter is depicted above and is truly amazing: no less than 11,000 handmade porcelain tiles pave the 1,200-square-meter space, forming 15 linear patterns inspired by the trusses around it.\u00a0It will welcome both customers from the caf\u00e9 and large-scale art pieces, a great idea!<\/p>\n

18 meters below, is V&A Museum<\/strong><\/em>\u2018s brand new Sainsbury Gallery! 1,100 square meters of extra exhibition space under a folded ceiling and in a pure, contemporary atmosphere where, you\u2019ll agree, inspiration flows free. The Exhibition Road Quarter<\/strong><\/em> and its\u00a0gallery are also intended to be a crossing point, a less formal space linking the museum\u00a0to the street. Breathtaking!<\/p>\n

Don\u2019t be scared by the idea of being deep underground: skylight brightens the space and gives a fresh vision of the fa\u00e7ades of the surrounding buildings. Well, what an actual art is architecture<\/strong><\/em>!<\/p>\n

Definitely, exclusive design<\/em><\/strong> and art is not only meant to be exhibited in museum: it can be the museum itself too. London<\/strong><\/em> nevers disappoints us when it reveals architecture<\/strong><\/em> and design projects, and V&A Museum Exhibition Road Quarter<\/strong><\/em> topped the city\u2019s standards\u00a0with flying colors!
