Mathias Klotz
Mathias Klotz Studio, Santiago
Based in Santiago, Mathias Klotz is one of the most prolific and exciting young architects working in South America today. Born in the costal Chilean town of Viña del Mar in 1965, Mathias has forged a career as both an architect and educator.
Mathias has achieved international recognition for his residential, commercial and public architecture – designing houses, hotels, conference centres and schools which are spacious, precise and elegant, utilising local materials and technology. Klotz means ‘block’ in German, apt given his stylistic approach to architecture. His work encompasses a concern for the environment, local history and culture and a strong sense of place.
