Practice pips shortlist including Charles Holland and Roz Barr for project opposite Lambeth Bridge

Mary Duggan Architects has won the competition to design a pavilion for south London’s Garden Museum, at Lambeth Green.

The practice beat five other shortlisted candidates to design the structure, which will serve as an entrance area to the museum, based in the former Church of St Mary’s at Lambeth. The new building will also provide facilities for staff and volunteers at the museum’s new 5.3-acre park.

Museum director Christopher Woodward – who was also chair of the judging panel – said a total of 128 entries were received for the original competition call in May. Duggan was shortlisted alongside runner-up Cooke Fawcett Architects as well as Charles Holland Architects, Roz Barr Architects, William Guthrie and a collaboration between Bartlett graduates Adrian Yankee Siu and Shi Qi Kiki Tu.
