H. G. Hammond

Horace Gael Hammond (4 June 1910 – December 2006)[1] was a British architect, responsible for designing the Grade II listed Curzon Mayfair Cinema for Sir John Burnet, Tait and Partners, built in 1963–66.[2] Historic England have described it as "the finest surviving cinema building of the post-war period, it is also the least altered."[2]
