    Many of the leading British architects, who changed the face of global architecture, were born within six years of each other in the 1930s. Shaped by postwar optimism and 1960s counterculture, they began their careers as outsiders and radicals. Amongst their work is one of the most influential, and controversial, buildings of the 20th century: the Pompidou Centre in Paris.
