There will be more caf\u00e9s, terraces and concourses in which to meet and unwind.\u00a0Learning will be at the heart of the new Tate Modern, reflecting Tate\u2019s commitment to increasing public knowledge and understanding of art.\u00a0There will be a range of new facilities throughout the building for deeper engagement with art: interpretation, discussion, private study, participation, workshops and practice based learning.<\/p>\n<p>The new Tate London\u00a0will continue to bolster the growth of the borough. A public walkway through the building will make possible a direct route from the City to the heart of Southwark.\u00a0There will be two new public squares to the south and west of the building. To the east, a new planted area will be created especially for the use of the local community and staff.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6616\" src=\"https:\/\/www.brabbu.com\/en\/news-events\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/New-Tate-Modern-Opens-Tomorow-in-London-4.jpg\" alt=\"New Tate Modern Opens Tomorow in London\" width=\"640\" height=\"287\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.brabbu.com\/en\/news-events\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/New-Tate-Modern-Opens-Tomorow-in-London-4.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.brabbu.com\/en\/news-events\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/New-Tate-Modern-Opens-Tomorow-in-London-4-300x135.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.brabbu.com\/en\/news-events\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/New-Tate-Modern-Opens-Tomorow-in-London-4-350x157.jpg 350w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.brabbu.com\/en\/news-events\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/New-Tate-Modern-Opens-Tomorow-in-London-5.jpg\" title=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6617\" src=\"https:\/\/www.brabbu.com\/en\/news-events\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/New-Tate-Modern-Opens-Tomorow-in-London-5.jpg\" alt=\"New Tate Modern Opens Tomorow in London\" width=\"640\" height=\"349\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.brabbu.com\/en\/news-events\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/New-Tate-Modern-Opens-Tomorow-in-London-5.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.brabbu.com\/en\/news-events\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/New-Tate-Modern-Opens-Tomorow-in-London-5-300x164.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.brabbu.com\/en\/news-events\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/New-Tate-Modern-Opens-Tomorow-in-London-5-350x191.jpg 350w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\"><\/a>\u00a0\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.brabbu.com\/en\/news-events\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/New-Tate-Modern-Opens-Tomorow-in-London.jpg\" title=\"\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6619\" src=\"https:\/\/www.brabbu.com\/en\/news-events\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/New-Tate-Modern-Opens-Tomorow-in-London.jpg\" alt=\"New Tate Modern Opens Tomorow in London\" width=\"640\" height=\"425\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.brabbu.com\/en\/news-events\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/New-Tate-Modern-Opens-Tomorow-in-London.jpg 640w, https:\/\/www.brabbu.com\/en\/news-events\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/New-Tate-Modern-Opens-Tomorow-in-London-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.brabbu.com\/en\/news-events\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/06\/New-Tate-Modern-Opens-Tomorow-in-London-350x232.jpg 350w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.brabbu.com\/en\/news-events\/category\/events\/design\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"\">Discover more Design Events in London<\/a>\u00a0or visite<a href=\"http:\/\/brabbu.com\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"\"><strong> Brabbu<\/strong><\/a> and get to know our collection and novelties.<\/p>\n<p>Source:\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.tate.org.uk\/\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"\">tate.org.uk<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p class=\"post-excerpt\">This new building designed by Herzog &amp; de Meuron\u00a0will transform Tate Modern.
