Place for All People

Richard Rogers is one of the pre-eminent architects of his generation, whose approach to buildings is infused with his love of life, strong sense of social justice, and his playful aesthetic sense. From the Pompidou Centre in Paris to the Lloyds Building in the City of London, and from his inspirational Maggie's Centre for cancer sufferers to his Y:Cube housing for homeless young people, he has - by thinking his way from the outside in - turned what architecture can do inside out.

Inside Out is both the engaging and inspirational story of Richard Rogers' life as an architect and simultaneously a book about creating a better society by creating better places to live. Ranging backwards and forwards over a long and creative life, and integrating relationships, projects, stories, collaborations and arguments with case studies, drawings and photographs Inside Out is a dazzling and inspiring book as original as its author.

Richard Rogers este unul dintre arhitectii preeminenti ai generatiei sale, a carui abordare a cladirilor este infuzata de dragostea sa de viata, puternicul simt al justitiei sociale si simtul sau estetic jucaus. De la Centrul Pompidou din Paris pana la cladirea Lloyds din orasul Londra si de la inspirationalul sau centru Maggie pentru bolnavi de cancer pana la locuinta sa Y: Cube pentru tinerii fara adapost, a transformat - gandindu-si drumul din exterior - arhitectura se poate face din afara.Inside Out este atat povestea captivanta, cat si inspiratia vietii lui Richard Rogers ca arhitect si simultan o carte despre crearea unei societati mai bune prin crearea unor locuri mai bune de trait.
