Court tours
The Court of the Future Network designs court tours for judicial officers, court executives and staff, architects and engineers, academics and others with an interest in justice environments. The numbers are limited to permit plenty of interaction and participants are encouraged to bring along their own ideas, designs and images.
Distinguished participants have included Thomas Schuster, project manager for the new permanent facilities of the International Criminal Court, Frank Greene, a top New York court architect, and Linda Mulcahy, a law professor specialising in the history of court architecture in Britain.
