3XN, a Copenhagen-based studio centered around cultural architecture, has just received the green light from the planning committee for their design of the new Migration Museum. 

A multi-million pound development in the Square Mile will give a new home to the Migration Museum and provide hundreds of affordable apartments.

The Migration Museum, currently based in Lewisham in south-east London, will take up 3,100m² over three floors. Developer Dominus, the scheme’s backer, said it would provide the space free of rent and service charges for the first 60 years.
