Studio Voltaire Tour with Matheson Whiteley
Studio Voltaire in Clapham is a complex of artists' studios and an associated gallery that presents an internationally recognised programme of contemporary art. In 2018, Matheson Whiteley won a competition run by the Architecture Foundation to expand and enhance the existing facilities and provide the institution with new public reception areas. The project, which opened to the public in September 2021 features a new garden at its entrance designed by the Turner Prize-shortlisted artist Anthea Hamilton.
