integration is one of the other
most important points of the
Richard Rogers’ architectural
concept.

problems can find solutions in
the construction of “compact
cities with multiple centers”.

philosophy’s topics are legible,
transparent, lightweight,
systems, urban, public and
green.

6. Lloyd's building
London

7. • The Lloyd’s Building(referred to as the inside–out
building) is the home of the insurance institution Lloyd’s
of London, and is located at 1, Lime street, in the City
of London.
• The building was designed by architect Richard Rogers and
built between 1978 and 1986.
• It is a leading example of radical Bowellism architecture
in which the services for the building, such as ducts and
lifts, are located on the exterior to maximize space in
the interior.
• The building was innovative in having its services such as
staircases, lifts, electrical power conduits and water
pipes on the outside, leaving an uncluttered space inside.

8. • With the open spatial planning, the interior is capable of being
reconfigured on a moment to moment basis with partition walls
that can subdivide each floor and create new and interesting
spaces.
• The Lloyd’s of London building consists of three main towers-each
attached to their own service tower-that are concentrically
oriented around a 60 meter atrium at the heart of the
building. Each floor acts as a gallery overlooking the atrium;
however, only the first four floors are open to the atrium
whereas the rest are enclosed by glass panels.
• the entire building is wrapped in stainless steel giving the building
a high-tech, almost post modern, aesthetic.

9. • Natural lighting Stepping Form The Lloyds Building,
consisting of twelve stories to the north, stepping
down to six stories to the south, sunlight penetration
thus utilized.
• The atrium was a key feature in the reduction of the
loads coming from lighting. The atrium increases in
volume and surface area as it progresses toward the
south. The office levels increase as the progress
northward allowing a large surface area for diffused
light coming from the north.
• A significant amount of natural lighting reaching down
into "The Room" demonstrates the success in the design
of the atrium. Furthermore, every location in the
building is located within 7 meters from a natural
source of light.

11. Millennium Dome
Greenwich Peninsula,, London

12. This spectacular multi-purpose space, architecture and engineering example of modern
social at the service was opened in January 1, 2000, coinciding with the start of the
new millennium, hosting an exhibition which closed on December 31 of that year.
Millennium Dome is a large building with a single roof located on the banks of the
River Thames, on a former industrial land on the Greenwich Peninsula, southeast of
London, England.
The Millennium Dome is one of the largest single roof structures performed worldwide.
His image resembles a large white tent subject to 12 yellow towers 100 feet high.
Each of these towers represents the hours of a clock and every month of the year. Its
original design was intended to accommodate major exhibitions, but to the failure to
call for public level was reused for music concerts and events, both artistic and
sports.

13. Structure
• The structure was designed by the Buro Happold, and the
entire roof structure weighs less than the air contained
within the building.
• In its construction were used for the base concrete, steel
towers painted yellow, cloth glass fiber matrix of PTFE (
Teflon ) for cover and rubber feet anchor it to the
ground.
• It took cable 70km high strength steel to attach the
fabric to the towers.
