The building will be located across the street from the masterpiece of C. R. The Mackintosh, voted Britain's most beloved structure - ever built over the past 175 years, according to a survey conducted to celebrate the 175th anniversary of the Royal Institute of British Architects.

The jury noted the “poetic use of light”, the clarity and integrity of Hall’s design, and the “respectful rivalry” that emerged between the school's historic building and its new wing.

Hall himself noted that the construction of the Macintosh from his student years played the role of a kind of "starting point" for him. While working on the project for Glasgow (which also became his first in the British Isles), the architect was also inspired by the way Mackintosh used natural light in his building: Hall repeated his decision when designing art workshops that would be combined into a single "circle" that will be to promote the creative communication necessary for the successful functioning of the school.

It should be noted that the finalists of the competition were evaluated by the jury not only on the basis of their projects: over the past summer, its members visited two buildings of each of the participants (in Hall's case, these were the Nelson-Atkins Museum in Kansas City and the new building of the Pratt Institute in New York), and also talked with the customers of these structures.
