Benjamin Britten Exhibition
The Red House in Aldeburgh has long been a magnet for music lovers and Benjamin Britten connoisseurs alike. Housed in Britten's former home, the exhibition offers visitors an insight into the life of one of Britain's most celebrated composers. The addition of a new archive building designed by architects Stanton Williams was the trigger to rethink the entire exhibition experience from the orientation system around the grounds and the reception welcoming visitors to the display of the collection's prized exhibits.
Exhibition designers GuM and Thomas Manss & Company collaborated in breathing new life into Britten's story through a revised interpretative narrative, a contemporary display of the historic treasures and accompanying literature that provides in-depth information on Britten's life and work.
