Explore 594 illustrated award cases: actual buildings and architectural honours, with the programme, year and official evidence stated separately.
Built-project awards and career honours recognise different subjects. Award year, building completion and photography date are distinct; a personal honour does not transfer to every building by its recipient. Photographs open at a larger size with creator and licence references.
The 1998 Pritzker Architecture Prize recipient record names Renzo Piano. Born into a family of builders in Genoa, Piano studied in Milan. Collaboration with Richard Rogers produced the Centre Pompidou; later work through Renzo Piano Building Workshop developed a varied language for museums and civic buildings.
