Twenty-first century technology lies hidden beneath our eighteenth-century lawn. Professor William Whyte, Keeper of Historic Buildings, uncovers the environmental control measures that make our new Library and Study Centre an award-winning & carbon-neutral building.

Doors open, sun shining, libraries restored and upgraded. Enjoyed a wonderful opening ceremony in the Old & Laudian Libraries at St John's College University of Oxford last week. Our 10-year project to reimagine, protect, and sustain the libraries + special collection spaces is now complete.


Tomorrow, we're back at one of our favourite museum's- the award-winning Museum of the Home to discuss housing, communities, and culture. Read more on this project: wrightandwright.co.uk/projects/museu… #housing #futureofmuseums #culturesector #architecture #museumofthehome

Wright & Wright is honoured to be shortlisted with Studio Weave for a proposal for British Museum's Grade 1 entrances and arrival landscape! We're working with @webbyates Tom Massey + daisy froud on visitor welcome pavilions supporting accessibility and inclusion.


The new spaces at the Grade I listed British Academy foster conversation and connection while also taking steps toward #sustainability. It’s been a pleasure collaborating with Wright & Wright Architects and The British Academy on this project. #sustainablearchitecture #BritishAcademy

Progress update on our St Edmund Hall project! The ground to second floor CLT structure for Park House is coming together. With the Park House CLT frame expected to be completed just weeks away, we’re looking forward to starting CLT work on other buildings in the project soon!




The British Museum Reading Room has re-opened to the public. It’s been closed since 2013 and I’m glad to be able to enter it again as it looks spectacular. #LondonArtCritic #ThingsToDoInLondon


Special thanks to Stone Federation for welcoming Partner Sandy Wright to the discussion last week. It was a great opportunity to share research and practices, using a case study on our 10-year project at St John's College and the Baroque Canterbury Quadrangle as an example. #stonework
