Phase 2 of our Masterplan for Hospitafields Arts, the Studios, have been shortlisted for the RIAS Awards in Scotland. This phase focuses on the more private areas of the site, creating studios and workshops with excellent access. Centred on the Rear Yard, this phase includes the renovation of the 1901 studios, conservation of the 1845 Patrick Allan-Fraser Studio, refurbishment of the Drawing School, and construction of a new studio building.
The judges will visit all the shortlisted buildings in the coming month.

As part of the exhibition's public events programme, a panel discussion will take place on Wednesday 25 March at ETH Zurich. Adam Caruso will join Linda Schädler, Adam Szymczyk, and Roland Züger for a conversation moderated by Irina Davidovici and Frida Grahn.
