In 2002, he co-founded the ETH Studio Basel – Contemporary City Institute. Herzog & de Meuron have designed a wide range of projects, from private homes to highly recognized public facilities, such as the National Stadium for the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing and the conversion of London’s Bankside Power Station into Tate Modern in 2000. Its extension, The Tate Modern Project, is scheduled to open in 2016. Join Jacques as he talks to Design Museum Director Deyan Sudjic about his career and what Herzog & de Meuron is building next.
