Centro Rogers Scandicci - Florence - Italy
Scandicci. On the occasion of the construction of the city tram, the Pritzker Prize for architecture Richard Rogers designed and carried out a great project that takes its name. The Rogers Center is a complex that includes: commercial, housing spaces, the tram stop, a beautiful square and a large pavilion used as an exhibition space. The reproduction of this work has been from Homestyler's limitations. The project is very "heavy", the renderings blocked and self-failed. I have tried several times to contact the staff, but the suggestions they gave me did not help to obtain the desired effect.The top of the Rogers Center is the exhibition pavilion that is imposed on the square. On the side the buildings with apartments, shops and the tram stop. Unfortunately, the project I made was modified to be able to make the rendering - I sacrificed the buildings by reducing them to end up working.

The shelter of the tram stop shows the photo of the Rogers center and the journey of the city tram. Below is a hint to life, works and prizes of Richard Rogers.
