Architect
British architect David Chipperfield is known for designs which are characterized by clarity, even severity.
David Chipperfield worked for both Richard Rogers and Foster Associates before establishing his own practice in 1984. Often thought of as a minimalist architect, he has become one of the most conceptionally complex architects working today, thanks to the diversity and depth of his realized projects. Amongst his highly acclaimed projects are the River & Rowing Museum which was his first major commission in England, the Knight House, or the masterplan for the Museum Island in Berlin. More recently his projects include the controversial Villa in Berlin-Schöneberg and the elegant office building in Düsseldorf. Chipperfield is also active in Milan, Venice, Madrid, the USA, and Japan.
