The australian architecture team Denton Corker Marshall, was designated winner of the international architecture contest done two years ago for the construction of the new Manchester city’s justice center.

The building has 34.000 m2 of built surface, distributed among 15 floors. It will accommodate 47 courts, 75 consulting rooms and several offices and auxiliary dependencies.

The main visual attraction of the building will be the irregular cantilevered floors standing out of the thinner sides of the facade. This aesthetic aspect have the objective of giving the icon category to the building, emphasizing its relevance and importance for the city.
