The Natural History Museum has launched NHM150, an ambitious transformation programme leading up to its 150th anniversary in 2031.

The appointment will cover RIBA Stages 2-4 of the Western Galleries Base Build, Oceans Gallery Base Build, Dinosaurs 28 (Swing Space) Exhibition Fit Out and Lives of Dinosaurs (Dinosaurs 30) Exhibition Fit Out projects.
They will be required to work as a fully integrated member of the project design teams, providing specialist expertise, analysis and design support to ensure the delivery of a coherent, accessible and enjoyable visitor experience across the Phase 2 galleries.
