The Harvard Graduate School of Design yesterday announced the six winners of the Richard Rogers Fellowship, each of whom will take up a three-month residency in Richard Rogers’ seminal Grade II*-listed house in Wimbledon.

The house was put up for sale through The Modern House in 2013, before the Rogers family instead decided to gift it to Harvard. It was built in the late 1960s for the architect’s parents, drawing variously on influences from Californian Modernism and a new-found flexibility in construction brought about by high-tech industrial systems and materials.

The winners include Harvard research associate Namik Mackic, German architect and planner Maik Novotny, and Dutch professor Dirk van den Heuvel. Joining them will be husband-and-wife principals of Mexico City-based architecture firm a|911 Jose Castillo and Saidee Springall, and Shantel Blakely, the former manager of the public lectures and conferences programme at Harvard GSD.
