RTKL

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

RTKL Associates Inc. is a Baltimore-based full-service architecture and engineering design firm. In addition to architecture and MEP and structural engineering, its services also include planning and urban design, interior architecture, environmental graphic design, landscape architecture, and special systems design. It is known for a variety of projects including the Shanghai Museum of Science and Technology, the new visitor's center of the U.S. Capitol Building, and several buildings in Baltimore's Inner Harbor. Following the terrorist attack of 9/11, RTKL was selected as Building and Coordinating Architect to help redesign and rebuild the Pentagon.

The firm was founded by Archibald Rogers in his grandmother's basement in Annapolis. He soon hired Francis Taliaferro as a draftsman. In 1949 the pair added Charles Lamb, whose design for the Teepee Lodge for the Anne Arundel County Girl Scouts gained the firm attention by winning an award from the American Institute of Architects.

Another early project was Harundale Mall, the East Coast's first enclosed shopping mall, built by the developer James Rouse. The addition of urban design specialist George Kostritsky in 1961 completed the foursome whose names formed "RTKL".

Besides the projects already mentioned, the firm's work has included the Reston Town Center in Reston, Virginia; the Salamanca Rail Station in Salamanca, Spain; and the Singapore embassy in Washington, D.C.. RTKL has designed projects all over the world in the retail and entertainment, residential, healthcare, civic and public, workplace, mixed-use, hospitality and technology sectors. The firm has received numerous awards for its work.

In 2004 it was announced that RTKL had won the bid to design the Beijing International Sports and Exhibition Center, which will house the 2008 Olympic Games.
