Richard Roger’s Talking Buildings

Richard Rogers Talking Buildings introduces young readers to the work of one of the 20th Century’s most influential architects for the first time. Written by his son, Ab Rogers, the book pays homage to Richard’s passion for legibility in architecture, each building tells its own story in a playful, informative language designed to intrigue, engage and inspire young minds. In addition to exploring the architect’s groundbreaking work, it celebrates his commitment to innovative building design that drives social and environmental change and shines light on his vision for a city that is fair and fun for all, his ethos as relevant today as ever before. The book marks the opening of the exhibition of the same name at the Sir John Soane Museum, which runs from the 18th of June to the 21st of September 2025.
