Renzo Piano is an Italian architect. From 1965 to 1970 he worked with Louis Kahn and with Makowsky. Later, he worked with Richard Rogers from 1971 to 1977, including work on the Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris. He also had a long collaboration with the famed engineer Peter Rice.

Today, Piano is well known for his museum designs: the Centre Pompidou, Paris, the Menil Collection in Houston, the Beyeler Foundation museum in Basel, Switzerland, a museum dedicated to Swiss painter Paul Klee in Bern, Switzerland, as well as completed museum projects in Dallas (the Nasher Sculpture Center) and in Atlanta (the High Museum of Art).

One of Piano’s most recent designs is the approved Shard London Bridge skyscraper, also known as the London Bridge Tower or Shard of glass, in London. His latest project is the natural history museum the California Academy of Sciences in Golden Gate Park, San Francisco. IN 1998, he won the Pritzker Architecture Prize.
