Jestico & Whiles' approved annex building for the Imperial War Museum in south London

Modular block will provide new office space for south London institution

Jestico & Whiles has won planning permission for a new annex for the Imperial War Museum in London, which will provide additional staff accommodation.

The three-storey block is earmarked for a site behind the grade II-listed museum’s existing All Saints Annexe building on Austral Street, and will have an entrance directly onto Geraldine Mary Harmsworth Park.

Jestico & Whiles’ scheme will deliver 1,063 sq m of new space for staff that the IWM said would allow it to bring together the core creative and administrative teams for its whole estate in “purpose-built, modern and flexible workspace”.
