Whilst designed by David Chipperfield Architects, Pacific Quay (docks are never called 'dock' these days) Studios was completed by Keppie Design in a slightly controversial move which some say was an example of the BBC bottling-out of their much vaunted commitment to top-notch architecture. Suffice to say though, the quality of detail is still a delight in this somewhat deceptive building... Pacific Quay is a completely modern name: the partially-filled dock that formerly occupied the site was known as Prince's Dock. It was the site of the 1988 Garden Festival: the subsequent permanent regeneration took almost twenty years to materialise. The red, or Dumfriess-shire, sandstone came from a quarry that was re-opened for this project. It's a rather nice use of material giving the building a sense of place.
