国家铁路博物馆中央厅设计竞赛 | National Railway Museum Central Hall Design Competition

Located in the heart of York, one of the world’s most important railway cities, the National Railway Museum is set for a transformation. The museum is poised to become the cultural anchor for York Central, one of the largest city centre brownfield regeneration projects in the UK, and indeed Europe. 

The re-routing of a major road that currently bisects the museum’s formerly industrial site and the regenerative uplift of the wider redevelopment means the museum can now create a revitalised physical presence, reflecting its status as a national cultural institution. Strategically, it aims to become the ‘World’s Railway Museum’ – attracting new audiences interested in innovative technology, engineering and science – as well as better serving existing and emerging communities.

Accordingly, the National Railway Museum Central Hall Design Competition focuses on an emblematic project due to open in 2025 as part of the museum’s 50th anniversary. This two-stage competition is open to both national and international integrated design teams, which include architects and structural, civil and services engineers.

The National Railway Museum Central Hall Design Competition is a two-stage process and is being run in accordance with EU procurement guidelines and the UK Public Contracts Regulations 2015. This competition has been advertised in the Official Journal of the European Union (OJEU).

This competition is being managed on behalf of the National Railway Museum by Malcolm Reading Consultants (MRC).

STAGE ONE – EXPRESSION OF INTEREST

An open call for participation that is aimed at attracting the very best design talent and is open to international as well as national teams. 

No design is required at the first stage. Integrated design teams of architects and structural, civil and service engineers who meet the Search Statement’s requirements are invited to submit an Expression of Interest detailing company information; details of the proposed team; and relevant experience. 

The deadline for this is: 14.00 BST Wednesday 16 October 2019.

Submissions for the first stage will be received electronically via the online form. Competitors should read and take note of the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) associated with this.

A shortlist of at least five teams will be selected to participate in the second stage of the competition. All competitors will be contacted by the competition organiser MRCprior to the start of stage two.

STAGE TWO – DESIGN CONCEPT

Shortlisted teams will be provided with detailed briefing information and invited to visit York for a site tour and seminar. Internationally-based competitors may be required to propose a UK-based executive architect as part of their team at stage two.

A technical panel will review the entries and produce a report for the jury, who will conduct interviews and select a winner.

As part of a wide-ranging public engagement process, the National Railway Museum will hold an exhibition of the schemes submitted by finalist teams in York in February 2020.

Each shortlisted team that submits a compliant entry and attends the jury interviews will receive an honorarium of £30,000 at the conclusion of the competition. 

The winner announcement is expected in March 2020.
