Migration Museum
About The Project
The Migration Museum Project aims to fill a clear gap in our cultural understanding
by creating a museum to relate the role that migration has played in the making
of Britain. We were appointed in 2013 to undertake a feasibility study and
business plan for the creation of a nomadic museum from shipping containers. The
study is informed by previous proposals made by the design team for the BFI
sub-zero film stores, amongst other precedents. Produced with Costain Heritage
and Gardiner and Theobald, our the study tests the viability of various nomadic
formats which would be able to tour the country and includes alternatives to
the expensive option of using containers. The study provides the foundations
for the next stages of the project and allows the Migration Museum Project to
identify appropriate partners and funders.
