The new architecture centre is the latest win for ISG on the renowned Liverpool waterfront, with the contractor delivering the final elements of the £66m Exhibition Centre Liverpool and Pullman Hotel development.
Work will begin on site in September to build RIBA's new north base to showcase RIBA's collections and become a focal point for those interested in the development plans of Liverpool and beyond.

ISG will undertake 'significant' alterations to the existing internal layout of the Building Two structure at Neptune Development's Mann Island site.
It will also create a new dedicated entrance for RIBA staff and visitors.
Occupying two floors of the building, which sits within a Unesco World Heritage Site, the contractor will install a new passenger lift and feature staircase to link the ground flood and first floor mezzanine level, which will also be extended to provide additional office space.
In addition to the creation of museum standard exhibition space, ISG will deliver a City Gallery, which will become the permanent home for the Liverpool City model and a venue showcasing development plans for the region.
The facility also includes lecture and conferencing facilities, majority open plan office accommodation and a retail outlet.
