We feature four key projects by this celebrated London-based architect: a classic Richard Rogers building The Pompidou Centre in Paris, a recent UK project, the Glasgow Bridge, the Millennium Dome, London and the Lloyds Building London.

Background on the Architect
Richard was a key member of the British Hi-Tech movement alongside Norman Foster. With Foster and James Stirling, Rogers was often portrayed in the Eighties as one of three dominant British architects working across the globe. Other Hi-Tech architects were Nicholas Grimshaw (originally with Terry Farrell), Chris Wilkinson and Richard Horden.

The first major Richard Rogers building, completed with celebrated Italian architect, Renzo Piano:

Centre George Pompidou / Pompidou Centre
Rue Beaubourg, Paris IVe, France
1976
Richard Rogers / Renzo Piano Architects


Pompidou Building, Paris: ducts image © adrian welch

Radical for its time with service ducts expressed on the exterior and all structure glamourised and articulated externally where possible. The architectural realisation of some Archigram ideas, with escalators providing dynamism to the main west facade. Half of the plot was given over to a rectilinear square which again added dynamism to the building. Also known as the Beaubourg Centre or simply The Pompidou.
