The final design for Dundee’s planned Victoria & Albert museum has been decided and I have to say it wouldn’t have been my first choice, or even second or third for that matter!
According to the article below it was a ‘unanimous decision’ which I find quite interesting as very few of my friends or colleagues had that particular design in their top 3 choices. This makes me think that the public consultation was just a PR excercise and that the final decision was always going to be made behind closed doors, but I am happy to look at a report which proves me wrong.
The following article gives more in depth information into the final design along with links to various websites:
