The RIBA’s £85m plans to refurbish its Marylebone headquarters have been given a public airing at a first round of public consultation.

The refurbishment and restoration of the grade II*-listed 1930s building would add a new collections centre which would house RIBA’s house its architectural collections and improve digital and cataloguing facilities.
