Drawings and watercolours from the collection are displayed in these minimalist glass cases of non-reflective glass. The frameless boxes are configured in cruciform patterns to be free-standing while using the minimum of space. Hanging surfaces slide out on a precision mechanism and close with an airtight seal permitting dust-free air-conditioning within. Localised lighting provides clear illumination at safe lighting levels. The installation does not impinge on the existing fabric of the listed building and can be reconfigured or removed without trace.
