The Hayward is an art gallery within Southbank Centre, situated on the South Bank of the River Thames, in central London, England.

Design

The building originally had a very small main foyer area with cast aluminium doors similar to those of the Queen Elizabeth Hall. In 2003 the foyer of the building was remodelled with a larger glass-fronted foyer, designed by the Haworth Tompkins architectural practice and including a new oval shaped glass pavilion designed by Dan Graham.
