Bruynzeel Museum storage: Lapworth Museum of Geology

The plan involved changing the Lapworth from a very academic university museum into a public access museum located on campus. A total redevelopment was required. The museum wanted to make the stores more accessible too. The storage situation at the Lapworth had become critical, compounded by an influx of material in recent years. There was a real danger of damage to the collection. The stores were very inefficient. The only way they could house everything was by improving efficiency. Mobile shelving was chosen as the best option for efficient use of space.
