The Zaha Hadid Foundation has announced plans to create a permanent gallery, museum and study centre in central London six years after its founder’s sudden death.

They will house a collection of 10,000 works by or relating to Zaha Hadid, from paintings and models to jewellery and furniture, and will also contain offices from which a programme of research, events and educational bursaries will be organised.

The new facilities will be in two locations – the former Design Museum at Shad Thames and Bowling Green Lane, Clerkenwell, which was until last year the headquarters of the practice founded by Zaha Hadid in 1979.
