This video produced by Jim Stephenson features the updated Burrell Collection museum in Glasgow by architecture studio John McAslan + Partners, which has been shortlisted for the RIAS Andrew Doolan Best Building in Scotland Award.
The film forms part of a series being published by Dezeen in collaboration with the Royal Incorporation of Architects in Scotland (RIAS) to highlight the annual award's 2024 shortlist.
Within the video, viewers are introduced to the refurbishment of the late-20th-century museum, which involved opening up the building to create additional space and facilitate better connections around the collection.
Commentary from senior museum manager Jane Rowlands and associate at John McAslan + Partners Katherine Watts expand on the positive impact of these adaptations, which Rowlands said make the collection "open and accessible to so many more people."
"Once we'd had a chance to think through what works and what doesn't work in the building, we were able to make some interventions," Watts said.
"The most visible intervention is what we call the Agora, which is a central orientation hub," she added. "So by opening it up, it links the spaces together."
The Andrew Doolan Best Building in Scotland Award is an annual award running since 2002 that highlights Scottish projects. This year's winner is set to be announced on 22 November.
Other projects vying for the prize include North Gate Social Housing by Page\Park Architects, which is also in Glasgow, Ardoch by Moxon Architects, and the University of Aberdeen Science and Teaching Hub and Fruitmarket Gallery by Reiach and Hall Architects.
