RSHP
RSHP is a British architectural firm, founded in 1977 and previously known as the Richard Rogers Partnership which became Rogers Stirk Harbour + Partners in 2007. The firm rebranded from Rogers Stirk Harbour + Partners to simply RSHP on 30 June 2022, after the retirement and subsequent death of Richard Rogers on 18 December 2021. Its main offices are located in the Leadenhall Building, London, completed to the firm's designs in 2014. Previously, they were at the Thames Wharf Studios. In its various incarnations RSHP has designed many important buildings including the Lloyd's building and the Millennium Dome in London and the Senedd building in Cardiff.
In addition to the principal offices, the firm also maintains offices in Shanghai, Sydney and Paris. As of October 2023[update] the firm has 10 partners, including Graham Stirk and Ivan Harbour.[needs update] The practice is run with a profit-share scheme and a limit on the directors' salaries, in comparison with those of the lowest paid in the office.
It is owned by a charitable trust, ensuring that no individual owns any share in its value and preventing private trading and inheritance of shares. The practice divides its profits among all of the staff and their chosen charities, according to publicly declared principles.[non-primary source needed]
The practice is strongly focused on sustainability, urban regeneration and social awareness. Celebration of public space and the encouragement of public activities is also a recurring theme.[non-primary source needed]
Soon after the Pompidou Centre in Paris was opened in 1977, Richard Rogers formed the Richard Rogers Partnership and started work on the Lloyd's building in London. Rogers explained that 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."
In November 2015, Rogers Stirk Harbour created five new partners including Tracy Meller, who became their first female partner. Founding partner Mike Davies stepped down.
In June 2022, the company rebranded to RSHP, following Rogers' retirement in June 2020 and death in December 2021.
In 2006, the practice was awarded the Stirling Prize for their design of Terminal 4 at Madrid-Barajas Airport
