An extension by London-based Hugh Broughton Architects is set to provide Maidstone Museum with the much-needed square footage to show off its extraordinary assets

英国的迈德斯通博物馆收藏了丰富多样的藏品，从所罗门群岛的一条战争独木舟到许多当地的历史文物。在21世纪之初，它发现自己空间不足，开始了一项大规模的翻新和扩建项目。如今，该博物馆的建筑面积进一步扩大，这是由总部位于伦敦的休·布劳顿建筑师(Hugh Brouton Architect)设计的。该博物馆拥有肯特郡最大的混合藏品，也是英格兰东南部最大的混合藏品之一。该博物馆拥有超过60万件艺术品，位于一栋二级核心建筑中，这是一栋都铎庄园(Tudor Manor)，可追溯到1561年。继2003年完成的西翼翻修工程之后，“东翼”项目于2006年通过RIBA完工授予休·布劳顿和他的团队。该小组最著名的是其正在进行的不伦特冰架上的哈雷岛第六南极考察站项目。

迈德斯通博物馆的扩建不仅保证了额外的存储津贴，使以前未使用的空间投入使用，而且还提供了新的展览馆和所有必要的现代化设施，以确保游客有充分的现代博物馆体验。

该结构覆盖着引人注目的金色铜瓦，内部有一个适当的微妙的内部(很快就能看到更多的图片)，它与现有的材料调色板(如木材地板和中性颜色)一起工作。

将这座历史建筑带入21世纪，扩建工程也受到环境控制，通过地面热泵取暖和冷却，在相邻花园的100米深的垂直钻孔上运行，而光伏电池板则坐在屋顶上。

Following a west wing renovation which was completed in 2003, the 'East Wing' addition project was awarded to Hugh Broughton and his team in 2006 through a RIBA completion

The structure is clad in eye-catching, gold-hued copper shingles

Holding the largest mixed collection in Kent and one of the biggest in South East England, the museum is home to over 600,000 artefacts in a core Grade II listed building, a Tudor Manor house dating back to1561

The shiny new addition not only provides new galleries...

... but all the mod cons needed to ensure a fully contemporary visitor experience

The structure has a suitably subtle interior which works with the existing material palette, such as timber floors and neutral colours  

The extension is also environmentally controlled, with heating and cooling via ground-sourced heat pumps running from 100-m-deep vertical boreholes in the adjacent gardens
