“My passion and great enjoyment for architecture, and the reason the older I get the more I enjoy it, is because I believe we – architects – can effect the quality of life of the people.”Richard Rogers.

What are Rogers’s style main features ?
Richard Rogers is known for his distinctly modernist and high-tech architectural design.
In addition to his cushy resume, Richard Rogers is also no stranger the tabloid world of the Royal Family. Prince Charles has continuously vetoed his designs and shut down building plans. Just comparing the design of Centre Pompidou with Buckingham Palace should be explanation enough for the root of this Lord vs. Prince feud. This is a clash of classical style with modern architectural designs that has seemingly turned into a personal vendetta against the British architect.
