Chipperfield's work includes more than one hundred projects ranging from civic, cultural, and academic programs to housing and interior design. With more than four decades of experience, and with numerous collaborations, Chipperfield has stamped his sensible and powerful, elegant architecture across Europe, Asia, and North America. His architecture expresses a respectful combination of contemporary elements with the existing built and natural environments, resulting in precise restorations and renovations of historical landmarks, and new buildings that are innovative in their function, sustainability, and their relationship to the cities fostering new ways of connecting communities.

His works are an example of what good architecture should be: deprived of unnecessary elements, a premise that comes with a thorough analysis of what sustainability in architecture means today, and accurately responding to contemporary issues, they are buildings that will gracefully and sustainably persist over time.
