This project sensitively integrated the new systems into the structure, choosing an approach that prioritized preventing irreparable damage to the historic fabric. The new humidity controls eliminate the significant fluctuations that were causing deterioration, establishing a tighter range that benefits the building fabric, while also improving conditions for the collections and visitor comfort. A wet pipe sprinkler system was chosen for its less intrusive installation requirements, paired with an early warning aspirating smoke detection system intended to allow quick detection and response to potential fire events before any water is utilized.
