​Asif Khan and Allies and Morrison selected as winners of Barbican Centre renewal contest

AA alumnus Asif Khan of Asif Khan Studios has been selected in collaboration with Allies and Morrison as winners of the Barbican Centre renewal contest.

The winning proposal was selected from a shortlist of five teams and will deliver a £50–£150 million refurbishment of the Barbican Centre in Central London.

The renovation will focus on retrofitting the centre’s creative spaces, improving the Grade II-listed building’s environmental performance and finding new purpose for underused areas.
