The Gilbert & George Centre involved the conversion of a 19th century former brewery into a new non-profit public art gallery and foundation for contemporary art. The project consisted of three separate exhibition areas with caretaker accommodation. The brewery’s original slate roof tiles were reinstated, along with interior timber cladding and sash windows. Walls were restored or rebuilt using London stock, and outside the cobblestone courtyard has also been restored. Westgreen also underpinned to form a new basement, with all levels being wheelchair accessible. Since completion in 2023, The Gilbert & George Centre has been nominated for four prestigious awards ‒ AJ Architecture Awards 2023 (Cultural Project), Brick Awards 2023 (Public), Civic Trust Awards 2024, and the RIBA London Awards 2024.
