Richard Rogers

Richard Rogers was a renowned British architect celebrated for his innovative designs and ideas about modern architecture. Known for his "inside-out" style, he often exposed buildings' structural elements, like pipes and elevators, making them visually prominent. This approach emphasized transparency and functionality, reflecting a belief that architecture should be both practical and beautiful. Key works include the Centre Pompidou in Paris and the Lloyd’s building in London. Rogers championed sustainability, advocating for environmentally friendly urban design and human-centered spaces, influencing how we perceive and interact with architecture in contemporary cities.
