Rogers Stirk Harbour + Partners

About

A British architectural firm, founded in 1977 and originally known as the Richard Rogers Partnership. The previous head office at Thames Wharf Studios, Hammersmith The practice is strongly focused on sustainability, urban regeneration and social awareness, themes that have long been a feature of Rogers' work. Celebration of public space and the encouragement of public activities is also a recurring theme.

Richard Rogers explained the reason for the change of the practice name from the Richard Rogers Partnership to Rogers Stirk Harbour + Partners in 2007 was because "We wanted to avoid the situation where the name of the practice is someone who died 100 years ago. Architecture is a living thing. If I want to leave something to the future, it has to be able to change – but retain something of the ethos that we built up over 50 years."

Founded, 1977

Factoids

The practice’s choice of a completely open plan office reflects the democratic beliefs. There are no individual offices; partners sit with their architectural teams, and every Monday a weekly meeting open to all employees is held to discuss competitions, on-going projects and more. Staff wellbeing is important, with a conscious focus on providing good working conditions for staff and ensuring a family-friendly environment. This collegiate approach extends to the wider world with a constitution that consciously brings a moral dimension to the work. This includes a staff profit-sharing scheme and significant contributions to charity, with staff members nominating the charities of their choice.
