Hoskins Architects

David Livingstone Birthplace

In 2015 Hoskins Architects was engaged by the David Livingstone Trust to lead a design team and develop proposals for the radical transformation of the Museum. Awarded Planning Permission in 2018 the proposals made a series of interventions to the existing complex, providing a new exhibition, improved visitor experience/facilities and modern archive object storage space for the collection.

As well as extensive and sensitive repair of the historic fabric of the buildings, interventions were carefully designed to improve accessibility and present Livingstone’s story in a relevant way to new audiences.
