RIP #RicardoBofill, the Catalan #architect known for his vibrant post-modern style. Experimenting with bold colour and form, he created some of the world's most striking buildings, drawing on African and Spanish influences. Bofill died aged 82 on 14 January. Pic Gregori Civera

RIP #RichardRogers, the legendary British architect behind some of the world's most memorable buildings, including 1977's Centre Pompidou in Paris (co-created with Renzo Piano) with its futuristic inside-out design revealing its inner workings. One of the greats. #architecture
