Summary: Designing galleries will be invaluable if you are intending to refurbish your exhibition spaces or to build a gallery from scratch. Part One is designed to help you to plan for the capital project (and beyond). Part Two is concerned instead with helping you to brief your architect, by discussing the technical requirements which will achieve a 'best fit' between your ambitions, facilities and resources. The book is a collaboration between the four Arts Councils in the UK. Although prompted by the availability of funding from the National Lottery, Designing galleries should be just as useful if you do not have access to this funding. (Font: Editor)
