GAD / PERSON PROFILE
Richard Rogers
An architectural legacy of visible systems and generous civic space.

How to read the work
Readable construction and adaptable internal space are joined to a concern for the city beyond the building. Public access is central to the Pompidou’s significance.
Professional recognition
2007 Pritzker Architecture Prize laureate.
