Herzog & de Meuron

Jacques Herzog and Pierre de Meuron are renowned for their experimental approach to materials and surfaces. Their work, such as the Tate Modern and the Bird's Nest stadium, often transforms the building envelope into an artistic statement. They are masters of the 'skin' of a building, using innovative textures and patterns to create unique visual identities. Their firm is highly collaborative and deeply engaged with the art world, resulting in projects that are as much about cultural expression as they are about structural function.
