Manchester Civil Justice Centre is a governmental court building in Manchester, England. Completed in 2007, it was the largest court building to be built in the UK since the Royal Courts of Justice in 1882.

Designed by Australian architects Denton Corker Marshall, it has been nicknamed ‘the filing cabinet’ due to its cantilever floors that extend over the lower levels at each end. The design draw inspiration from Expressionist architecture as well as the Futurist art movement of the 1920s which emphasised the use of dynamic lines.

The building comprises three vertical components of varying heights. The first is a 13-storey ‘finger’ block with long rectilinear forms, the second a solid billet of steel circulation spine, and the third is a fully glazed atrium 60 x 60 m which is the largest of its kind in Europe. The intention of the design was to reinforce the notion that the judicial system and process was not concealed, but transparent and accessible.

The building attains a BREEAM Excellent rating, with the elongated form allowing for natural cross-flow ventilation, and natural light capable due to the slender building plan.

When it was completed, the building was critically acclaimed, with Blueprint magazine calling it one of the ‘best British buildings of the 21st century’, and being nominated for RIBA’s Stirling Prize.
