V&A Design Studio has designed the Donatello - Sculpting the Renaissance exhibition in London, United Kingdom.

This exhibition project is the first major UK exhibition to explore the talents of the Renaissance master Donatello features six large, lightweight architectural volumes that divide the V&A's Sainsbury gallery into a series of open piazza spaces inspired by the city vernacular of Florence.

Visitors are encouraged to explore a mix of 'exterior' and semi-transparent 'interior' spaces that frame a variety of objects and narratives.

The works are arranged according to their original architectural settings, whether in a private room, chapel, cathedral altar, or outside, adjacent to or on a building.

This project has been longlisted in the exhibition design (interior) category of Dezeen Awards 2024.
