List of works by Richard Meier explained

This list of works by Richard Meier organizes the Pritzker-winning American architect's work.

Background & Criteria

Meier's work has spanned several decades and has been internationally recognized with awards and prizes. More than just architecture, Meier has designed furniture, renovated and redesigned individual apartments, and made multiple sculptures. In 1960 Meier worked on his first recorded design, a competition entry for the design of the Franklin Delano Roosevelt Memorial.[1] In 1964 Meier founded Richard Meier & Partners, through which he would produce all of his work for the next several decades. The firm would grow to have an office in New York, and one in Los Angeles. In 2018, amid the MeToo movement, Meier was accused by several women of sexual harassment and assault.[2] He first took a leave, and in late 2018 it was announced that he would permanently resign from his firm.[3] In 2021, the Richard Meier & Partners offices restructured into Meier Partners and STUDIOpractice in New York and Los Angeles respectively.[4] As of 2021, Meier was available for consultation upon request at Meier Partners.

This list considers as part of Richard Meier's artistic cannon: all of Meier's work before 1964, all of Richard Meier & Partners' work which began before 2018, as well as any post-2018 work where he is specifically cited as a contributor. This list uses Richard Meier & Partners' official catalog of work as its primary source which includes all of Meier and his firm's creative work - regardless of artistic genre. Other sources are used to supplement and fill in any remaining gaps.
