The architecture of Jacques Herzog and Pierre de Meuron is globally renowned for its experimental approach to materials and scale. Regardless of the project, they consistently strive to enhance the public life it can foster.
Notable completed works include the Tate Modern in London, the Elbphilharmonie in Hamburg, and the main stadium for the 2008 Beijing Olympics. The practice has won prestigious awards including the Pritzker Architecture Prize (2001) and the RIBA Royal Gold Medal (2007).
