Richard Rogers explained 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 to built up over 50 years."〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Interview: architects Richard Rogers, Graham Stirk and Ivan Harbour )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Rogers Stirk Harbour + Partners」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
