Released today in the Architects Journal and Building Design were three images that we created for DCM Architects showing the proposed new visitor centre at Stonehenge. Although the controversy over this project has been great, DCM have acknowledged the challenge, and the responsibility, and have endeavoured to design a modest building that blends with its surroundings, avoiding as much disturbance of the ancient site as possible.

The images show the one-story visitors centre with its ‘forest’ of columns and ‘undulating canopy’, subtly perched away from the stone circle, sitting lightly amongst its surrounding landscape.
