Great Court at the British Museum, London
The engineering of modern glass in this redesign of the British Museum,
conceived by Foster + Partners, is an extraordinary feat and beautiful example
of the art of architecture. With the latest advances in technology, glass is
an architectural feature with limitless possibilities because of its precision
installation, durability and strength. Nothing is impossible. In many examples
around the world, glass in buildings has been used in surprising installations,
proving the versatility of its properties and demonstrating why it is the feature
architects and designers choose as an integral part of their vision.
