The Victoria and Albert Museum's new Exhibition Road Quarter was designed by Amanda Levete and her practice, AL_A.

The new Sackler Courtyard is the world's first all-porcelain public courtyard, paved with 11,000 handmade porcelain tiles.

The project is the museum's largest architectural intervention in over 100 years.

The new Sainsbury Gallery provides the V&A with a purpose-built space for its temporary exhibitions.

The project took six years to realize.

The new courtyard was intended as a meeting point, public square and museum entrance.

Almost 800,000 cubic feet of earth (99% of which was recycled and reused for landscaping) was excavated to make way for the new subterranean gallery.
