AÂ is for Anthony Hunt
Anthony Hunt is a British structural engineer who was key to the success of many of the most-prominent high-tech buildings and worked with all of the leading British proponents of the style ? Norman Foster, Richard Rogers, Michael and Patty Hopkins and Nicholas Grimshaw.
His best-known high-tech projects include the Reliance Controls factory, Hopkins House, the Sainsbury Centre and the International Terminal at Waterloo station.
B is for B&B Italia
High-tech architects Richard Rogers and Renzo Piano collaborated together throughout the 1970s on a series of factories and offices including the headquarters of furniture company B&B Italia in Como, Italy. Built in 1973, the office is described by the furniture brand as "a real-scale prototype" for the Centre Pompidou, which would complete four years later.
CÂ is for Centre Pompidou
Designed by Richard Rogers and Renzo Piano, the Centre Pompidou in Paris is one of the most significant buildings of the high-tech style and helped draw global attention to the movement.
Completed in 1977, the cultural landmark is a clear example of an inside-out building, with its structure and mechanical services visible on its exterior.
DÂ is for Millennium Dome
The Mille...
