Background
Titanic Belfast is a world-class visitor attraction, opened to commemorate the centenary of the sinking of The Titanic. It is housed in the Signature Building, a complex and visually striking £90m structure. The Signature Building has an unusual architectural design both inside and out; externally its four sections each evoke the shape of a ship’s prow. Inside, a variety of spaces support the facility’s attractions, which include nine galleries, many with generous ceiling heights to support full-scale reconstructions, and two floors of conferencing and banqueting facilities. The building provides over 13,000 m2 of floor space in total and also includes a two-storey underground car park.
