Kibble Palace is a Category A glasshouse located in the Glasgow Botanic Gardens. The smaller wings were originally built at Coulport and re-located in the Botanic Gardens, and became part of the much larger circular structure. Originally the building was conceived as a pleasure dome, floored over for exhibitions and other events. However, the building was a financial failure and in the 1870s the Botanic Gardens took over control of the building and introduced Tree Ferns which now form a National Collection.

The Kibble Palace was the subject of a major restoration project with the greater part of the structure being taken down, cleaned, repaired and re-erected. MAST were appointed by Glasgow City Council as interpreters for the project, to prepare an Interpretive Plan, and to develop suitable media for explaining the importance of the collection of Tree Ferns and the unique building which provides the necessary climatic conditions for the survival of these plants from the Southern Hemisphere in Glasgow.

MAST worked on this project with Alan Crumlish, Photographer.
