The project vision was to create a new entrance and focal point for visitors and guests to the Discovery Centre Building. The refurbishment of the existing reception and visitors space involved replacing the outdated slatwall panels around the room's perimeter with new ones to give it a fresh, contemporary look.

Within the open space, new storage - both fixed and mobile - and display zones were created to improve the visitor experience. New feature lighting was installed to create different mood settings and new floor coverings were installed to assist the directional movement of visitors to the building. All rooms were fully decorated to help freshen up the building appearance and create the new vibrant space.
As part of the wider refurbishment, new access-controlled entrance and exit doors were installed to allow improved security measures to the building when the building is not in use.
