Favourite Project
Leeds Art Gallery Roof – the discovery of a spectacular arched, glazed atrium roof structure that had been hidden away for more than 40 years and an old ornate doorway in the same room, made this an interesting project to be involved with. The roof had been hidden above a false ceiling but now forms part of a revamped gallery on the first floor.
