Hopkins Architects
Hopkins Architects is one of Britain's leading architectural practices. Best known for their trademark roof structures like the one at Lord's cricket grounds, the company has completed plenty of office and industrial buildings around the UK.
The New Parliamentary Building (or Portcullis House as it was finally renamed) opposite Big Ben at London's Parliament Square provides office space and retail facilities for the Members of Parliament. Together with the Jubilee Line Station on which foundation it is built, the building is an example of how a thoroughly modern approach can result in a building which is nevertheless sympathetic to its historic surroundings.
