===High-tech architecture=== [[High-tech architecture]] emerged as an attempt to revitalise the language of Modernism, it drew inspiration from technology to create new architectural expression . The theorical work of [[Archigram]] provided significant inspiration of the High-tec movement. High-tech architecture is mostly associated with non-domestic buildings, perhaps due to the technological imagery. The two most prominent proponents were [[Richard Rogers]] and [[Norman Foster, Baron Foster of Thames Bank|Norman Foster]]. Rogers' most iconic English building is the [[Lloyd's building]], situated nearby is Foster's most famous [[30 St Mary Axe]] building (nicknamed ''The Gherkin''). Their respective influence continues into the current century.
