Venezia. In 2006, he was awarded the
Stirling Prize for Terminal 4 of Barajas
Airport and in 2009, for Maggie's Centre
in London
 He was created Baron Rogers of
Riverside, of Chelsea in 1996. He sits as
a Labour Peer in the House of Lords.
 Rogers has been awarded honorary
degrees from Oxford Brookes University
and the University of Kent, and was
awarded the 2007 PritzkerPrize,
architecture's highest honour.
 Rogers was appointed Companion of
Honour (CH) in the 2008 Birthday
Honours.

5. Theory
 Cities: are the physical framework of our society, the
generator of civil values, the engine of our economy and the
heart of our culture.
 Public domain: Public space between buildings influences
both the built form and the civic quality of the city, be they
streets, squares or parks. A balance between the public and
private domain is central to the practice's design approach.
 Legibility: The structure of buildings set the scale, form and
rhythm of the architectural environment, within which change
and improvisation can take place.
 Flexibility:Today's buildings are more like evolving
landscapes than classical temples in which nothing can be
added and nothing can be removed.
 Energy: Architects have a major role to play, given the fact
that 75 per cent of global energy consumption is produced by
buildings and transportation.

16. SITE
Leadenhall Street in the heart of the
financial district of the city of
London. The site is awkwardly
shaped due to the medieval
character of London’s street plan.
Typical of medieval streets, the
streets surrounding the Lloyds
Building are tight and winding,
providing a sharp contrast between
solid and void, between building and
street.

17. Lloyds Building 1978-86, London
Description
The Lloyds Building, consisting of twelve stories to the
north, stepping down to six stories to the
south, was a replacement for the previous buildings which
Lloyds of London occupied but found to be too small for its continued
growth.
Presently, the Lloyds Building with its 52,200 square metres gross
area (37,500 square metres net area) is a 66 percent increase over the
Cooper buildings it replaced. "The Room" takes all the area of the
ground floor and extends into the upper second, third, and fourth
floors. Office spaces take up the remaining upper floors.
GENERAL
INFORMATION

18. Requirements
The Room – required large open adaptive space
Dating back to the 17th century, Lloyds of London has today transformed
itself into a modern market place operating on the principles of a
traditional market. Composed of a society of underwriters, each having
their individual stall in the Lloyd's market, the efficiency and success of
Lloyd's depends on the interaction between individuals and in the contact
gained from working in a large open space, an open market, called "The
Room".
Expansion – continue growth leads to need of expansion and flexible
structural and services layout
The Corporation of Lloyds of London had already moved several times in
attempt to suit its continued growth before acquiring the site on
Leadenhall Street in the 1920’s. During the World War II, German bombs
flattened the adjacent sites; however, the Cooper building in which Lloyds
resided survived. In 1950, Lloyds, foreseeing a further need for expansion
bought the surrounding sites and began to build the "new" Lloyds. This
new building, completed in 1958, was linked to the 1928 building by a 38-
foot bridge spanning over Lime Street.
Continued growth of Lloyds quickly led them to reevaluate their situation
and again look for ways to expand. By the 1960s and 1970s, the 1958
building was already too small and Lloyds now began to look at 1928
building as a possibility in meeting their expansionist ideals. The 1928
building ultimately became their solution. Although listed (grade II) by the
government, it was allowed by the City to be demolished in 1981 in place
of the current Lloyds Building, which was completed in 1986.
GENERAL INFORMATION

19. Natural lighting
Stepping Form
The Lloyds Building, consisting of twelve
stories to the north, stepping down to
six stories to the south, sunlight
penetration thus utilized.
the incorporation of the atrium
The atrium was a key feature in
the reduction of the loads coming
from lighting. The atrium
increases in volume and surface
area as it progresses toward the
south.
The office levels increase as the
progress northward allowing a
large surface area for diffused
light coming from the north.
A significant amount of natural
lighting reaching down into "The
Room" demonstrates the success
in the design of the atrium.
Furthermore, every location in
the building is located within 7
meters from a natural source of
light.

20. the served and servant
It was Kahn’s notion of ‘served’ and
‘servant’ spaces inspired Rogers. In the
case of Llyods, servant spaces concentrate
in towers.

The services towers, 3 of them
principally for fire fighting and
escape.
The other 3 for lifts, lavatories and
risers, are the visual expression of
the Kahnian doctrine of ‘served and
servant spaces’

22. Tower – vertical planning
The towers form a flexible framework for the ventilation plant,
lifts, service risers and lavatories (all the 33 lavatory units were
manufactured and fitted out) attached to them.
Four towers carry major plant-rooms, with mains services running
vertically down the towers and connected into each level of the
building.
The largest services duct contained the air-conditioning, with
lesser duct for water, drains, power and electronics
The towers carry majors plant rooms on top

23. Typical detailed layout

24. Air conditioning system
Supply ductworks
Conditioned air is distributed
through a sub-floor plenum into the
offices
stale air is extracted
from above through the
multi-function
luminaries
ALUZINC duct extracting air through light fittings
The extracted air is passed to the perimeter of the
building and forced through the triple-layered exterior
glazing – ensuring an almost zero heat loss from the
offices during the winter and reducing heat gain in
summer.
Extracted ductworks
The operable window allows individuals the ability to "acquire" fresh air if the feel it necessary. The placement of the window encourages
individuals to work while sitting rather than standing since that is where the views are held. It also allows interior light to be reflected back into
the interior during the night and diffuses direct sunlight during the day. The need to take mechanical systems into careful consideration when
designing energy conscious builidings is made evident when one compares the the overall space that they consume in a building in relation to
the human being

25. Air cond.
The largest services duct contained the air-
conditioning running vertically down the towers
and connected into each level of the building.

26. The heat cycle
Heat from the return air is collected in the
basement sprinkler tanks and re-used. The internal
concrete soffits and slabs are ‘heat sinks’,
absorbing heat during occupation and being cooled
off overnight using naturally chilled night air.
This allow cooling to follow a 24-hour cycle and
reduces the peak cooling requirement.
Air handling equipment is located at basement
level and in four service tower plant-rooms.

30. description
Description
The basic form of the building is that of a large atrium, surmounted by
steel and glass arched roof, surrounded by galleries (12levels of them
on the north side) which contain the bulk of the underwriting space
and a variable a mount of lettable space, depending on the changing
accommodation need of the Llyods market itself.
The floors were constructed on reinforced concrete columns on a
10.8x18metre grid. The load is transferred between the columns and
the floor beams by means of a pre-casted bracket. Pre-cast ‘yokes’
cast into inverted U-beam transmit the loads of the floor grid to the
perimeter columns via the brackets.
The great columns, both the exterior of the building and within the
atrium, stand proud of the cladding, increasing the highly articulated
‘Gothic’ effects of Llyods. External cross-braces are actually made of
steel tube concrete grid open to view.

32. Columns, Beams and Floors
The floors were constructed on reinforced
concrete columns on a 10.8x18metre grid. The
load is transferred between the columns and
the floor beams by means of a pre-casted
bracket. Pre-cast ‘yokes’ cast into inverted U-
beam transmit the loads of the floor grid to the

columns, both the exterior of the building and
within the atrium, stand proud of the cladding,
increasing the highly articulated ‘Gothic’ effects
of Llyods. External cross-braces are actually
made of steel tube concrete grid open to view.
By using beams with parallel sides
and sharp arises Rogers emphasizes
that the floor is a grid not a solid,
coffered slab
