Richard Rogers: Talking Buildings

18 Jun-21 Sep 2025

Sir John Soane’s Museum
London WC2A 3BP

Overview

This exhibition focuses on modernist and high-tech architect Richard Rogers’ ten favourite projects from 1967 to 2020.

From the Zip Up House and the Pompidou Centre, to Lloyds of London and the Millennium Dome, Talking Buildings paints a vivid and immersive portrait of an architect who never stopped developing his social, environmental, ethical and political passions, and for whom buildings were the physical manifestation of his beliefs. The show will feature drawings, film and Rogers’ trademark highly coloured Perspex models.
