RSHP

The practice is led by 10 partners and employs a team of around 180 people in offices in London, Melbourne, New York, Paris, Shanghai, Shenzhen, and Sydney. It comprises architectural staff and in-house specialist support teams including BIM management, 3D visualization, film and model-making.

RSHP brings a wealth of varied architectural experience, working across multiple sectors and diverse project scales. It designs a wide range of building types including office, residential, transport, education, culture, leisure, retail, civic and healthcare as well as masterplan and urban design.

At its heart is a commitment to create and inspire meaningful change. This proposition is anchored in creativity, usability and durability and infused with three core values: sustainability, innovation and putting people at the centre of everything the practice does.

This rigorous design process can be seen in all RSHP’s buildings, including The Leadenhall Building (the practice’s HQ is based on level 14), Centre Building at the London School of Economics, 3 World Trade Center, the Macallan Distillery and Visitor Centre, Cancer Centre at Guy’s Hospital, the British Museum World Conservation and Exhibition Centre, International Towers Sydney and PLACE/Ladywell.

The quality of its designs has been recognised with some of architecture’s highest awards, including two RIBA Stirling Prizes, one in 2006 for Terminal 4, Madrid Barajas Airport and the other in 2009 for Maggie’s West London Centre.

The firm was founded as the Richard Rogers Partnership in 1977 and renamed Rogers Stirk Harbour + Partners in 2007 to reflect the vital contributions of Graham Stirk and Ivan Harbour. To mark the next step in the continued evolution of a studio that has earned a reputation for innovation throughout its 40-year history, it was renamed RSHP in 2022.

A written Constitution places the ownership of the practice in the hands of a charity. It has enshrined RSHP’s commitment to sustainability, ethical practice and social good, empowering the practice and people to constantly evolve and develop. The RSHP charity that underpins its corporate structure supports diverse organisations to create positive impact. This includes a staff profit-sharing scheme and significant contributions to charity, with staff members nominating the charities of their choice.

No site is too constrained, or project too challenging, to unlock the social and commercial value hidden within it.
