Architects Wilkinson Eyre completed 2005
The building is difficult to photograph in winter due to low sun & long shadows
The main entrance facade faces North & is normally in shade except for late evening.
The new building is an extension to an old Victorian (19th Century) brick building which faces the Marina & is linked to it forming a courtyard between

Main Facade

Main Entrance

I plan to take some Night Shots of the Main facade

Round the corner another entrance into the link to the Victorian (19th Century) Building

A new Entrance from the Marina side

Courtyard view the facade is a mix of Welsh Slate Cladding

Internal view of the main museum section

View of the exhibition space
I was disappointed that nearly all exhibits were behind glass .. lots of reflections .. not enough interaction with exhibits ..

Location Map shows the Museum ,Marina, Technium Centre
