Architecture & Finance Vol 2

The association between the history of architecture and banking is as old as the profession itself. And it continues to this day. The great banking houses of Europe and North America have long sought to associate their banking prowess with representative architecture. Banks seek to inspire confidence, strength, resilience, and most importantly, trust in their clientele. The buildings in which banks house their operations are meant to reflect these values but the ways in which banks have done so is as varied as the banking houses themselves. Yet the storied and diverse history of banks and their buildings is also intimately connected to the development of technology as well as the cities in which these banks have emerged and gone on to flourish. I am pleased to present the second eabh bulletin on Architecture and Finance. This second bulletin continues to examine this history one case study at a time. However, the connections between these stories are unmistakable as are the legacies they have established.

Most financial institutions’ buildings are landmarks. Placed in the heart of city centres, they occupy prominent spaces in our urban environments. This volume aims to be a starting point. We want to start a collection of cases and stories of financial institutions – in this case, European financial institutions – in order to get a sense of the bigger picture: how does finance change the way we work? How does finance change the way we live? Or is it occasionally the other way around: can the way we live transform finance?
