Herzog & de Meuron

Herzog & de Meuron is an international architectural practice based in Basel, Switzerland, founded by Jacques Herzog (1950-) and Pierre de Meuron (1950-), both graduates of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zürich. The firm takes an open, impartial approach to projects, seeking collaboration beyond conventional disciplines with like-minded, curious, and adventurous partners. Their work spans from small buildings to urban master plans, emphasizing architecture's role in shaping community identity and viewing it as both public and political. One of their key projects was the conversion of the Bankside Power Station into the Tate Modern in 2000. The firm now comprises over 600 team members across 50 offices worldwide, focusing on dynamic team structures for each project.
