In 2001, WilkinsonEyre won the RIBA Stirling Prize for this transformation of a redundant steelworks to create the UK's first Science Adventure Centre. With the story of steel as its main focus, the exhibition is organised by the Aristotelian elements of earth, air, fire and water – all essential to the steelmaking process. Our design concept placed four pavilions – one for each of the elements – within the 400m long, 35m high main shed, connected by steel bridges and walkways.
