It is thought to have been started by an electrical fault. Architects Allies and Morrison will work with the National Trust to develop a final design, which is expected to be revealed next year. It was unanimously selected by a panel, which included heritage, architecture and local experts, following a competition in which six finalists were shortlisted earlier this year.<\/p>\n<p>The jury praised the winning team&#8217;s bold yet balanced approach to \u2018respect the quality and character of the mansion house in its historic setting\u2019. The proposed concept for the stately home is at an early design stage, but the whole project is expected to cost \u00a330m. It envisages a new entrance to the house, new gallery spaces, and a courtyard garden above the Marble Hall.<\/p>\n<p>Paul Appleton, partner at Allies and Morrison, said: \u2018We feel enormously privileged to work with the National Trust to unfold the story Clandon Park has to tell and to begin, together, to weave plans for its future around the extraordinary evidence of its past.\u2019<\/p>\n<p>Construction work is expected to begin by early 2019.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.bbc.com\/news\/uk-england-surrey-42240143\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Read more&#8230;.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>For more background see the NT <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nationaltrust.org.uk\/clandon-park\/lists\/meet-the-design-teams-at-clandon-park\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">website<\/a> and read the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nationaltrust.org.uk\/press-release\/allies-and-morrison-wins-international-design-competition-to-restore-reimagine-and-rebuild-clandon-park\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">press release<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Allies and Morrison architects has been selected to rebuild the National Trust\u2019s (NT) Clandon Park, the 18th Century mansion destroyed by fire in 2015.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-17608","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-sector-newsblog"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17608","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=17608"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17608\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":17610,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/17608\/revisions\/17610"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=17608"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=17608"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/newsblogs.ihbc.org.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=17608"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
