"The Great Court" explores the ceation of a unique "urban room", the impetus for and background to the project, the competition, the complex design and construction processes, the role of the Museum in London and in the future. This book will be published to mark the opening of The Great Court at the British Museum, but will stand alone as an informative and accessible introduction to the concept of the Great Court and to the architecture itself.
