Description

Since first starting his practice in the late 1980s, the Santiago-based architect Mathias Klotz (b. 1965) has designed buildings from Chile to China that combine Modernist inspiration with local construction techniques. Having won the Borromini prize for best architect under forty in 2001, Klotz has gone from being known in his native Chile for a series of award-winning single-family residences to larger, more challenging projects-including university buildings, military housing, and commercial properties that expand his architectural vision into the international realm.
