Richard Rogers' Wimbledon House Restored for Harvard Program

摘要

In the 1960s, Richard Rogers, hon. faia, and then-wife Su Brumwell designed a 2,766-square-foot house and pottery studio for his parents in London's Wimbledon district. The two-building scheme entails a steel structure with movable partitions, neoprene and plastic-coated aluminum accents, and floor-to-ceiling windows. A solution ahead of its time, the residence provided hints of Rogers' radical architecture to come.
