David Chipperfield Architects

Working across the private and public sectors, the practice has built a diverse portfolio of cultural, residential, education, retail, workplace and civic projects. Its approach is grounded in a concern for the social and environmental sustainability of the built environment and its role in our collective quality of life. Rather than fixed formal ideas, the work is unified by a focus on the quality of process and discourse, collaborating with clients to mediate their ambitions with the wider social, cultural, ecological and physical context.

The practice has received more than 100 awards for design excellence. Among its major completed works are the rebuilding of the Neues Museum in Berlin, the James-Simon-Galerie in Berlin, the Amorepacific headquarters in Seoul, the Royal Academy of Arts in London and The Bryant in New York. David Chipperfield was awarded the Pritzker Architecture Prize in 2023, the profession's highest honour, recognising a body of work defined by restraint, longevity and civic responsibility.
