Richard Rogers (1933–2021)

Born 1933 CE, died 2021 CE.

Richard George Rogers, Baron Rogers of Riverside (23 July 1933 – 18 December 2021) was a British and Italian architect noted for his modernist and constructivist designs in high-tech architecture. He was the founder of RSHP, previously known as the Richard Rogers Partnership, until June 2020. After Rogers' retirement and death, the firm rebranded to simply RSHP on 30 June 2022. Rogers was perhaps best known for his work on the Pompidou Centre in Paris, the Lloyd's building and Millennium Dome, both in London, the Senedd building, in Cardiff, and the European Court of Human Rights building, in Strasbourg. He was awarded the RIBA Gold Medal, the Thomas Jefferson Medal, the RIBA Stirling Prize, the Minerva Medal, and the 2007 Pritzker Prize.
