ZMMA

ZMMA is a London practice of architects and exhibition designers specialising in museums, galleries and mixed-use arts projects. Its work spans new buildings and the transformation of important historic sites, from the V&A and the National Museum of Scotland to Poole Museum and Gainsborough’s House, where architecture, interpretation and display are thought through as one continuous experience.

The studio’s projects also cover learning spaces, studios and workshops, restaurants, hotels, offices, retail and residential buildings, often within the same scheme. That range lets ZMMA treat the visitor route, the collection and the commercial life of an institution together, so that a gallery extension can also carry a cafe, a shop or a study room without losing coherence.
