Open House Weekend, London
Maggie's Centre, Charing Cross Hospital, Fulham Palace Road W6 8RF
Designed as serene, comfortable alternative to the dauntingly huge Charing Cross Hospital in Hammersmith, Maggie’s Centre is a flexible space with a raised roof, which encourages light to penetrate every space in the building. Designed by Rogers Strik Harbour + Partners, and built in 2008, Maggie’s Centre is essentially a two-storey pavilion surrounded with thick, bright orange masonry - an incredibly vivid adage, which serves as a colour sensitive backdrop to the building’s green surrounds. %A
%AThe centre opens its doors from 11am on Sunday 20th September, closing at 4pm. There are regular tours available on a first-come-first-serve basis.
