Romilly Craze
Romilly Bernard Craze (1892-1974) was an English architect.[1]
Life
He was the son of George Henry Craze and his wife Louisa Mary Webb. He was born in 1892, and baptised on 17 February 1900 in St Luke's Church, West Norwood.
He married Elizabeth Ethel Dutton on 6 September 1919.
Craze worked in partnership with Sir William Victor Mordaunt Milner, with whom he formed the firm of Milner & Craze.[1] He spent much of his career repairing churches damaged by bombing during the Second World War, but also produced some distinctive churches of his own.

gollark: I don't really agree with Chinese room arguments.
gollark: Photonic ML hardware is apparently beginning to exist and is very efficient, so that could help in a few years.
gollark: There is apparently work on accursed optics things for the displays, and batteries... are harder, but maybe minimising power use with more efficient hardware can be done.
gollark: Enough minor conveniences stacked together gives a useful product. And you can fit smartphone SoCs into slightly bulky glasses - there are already AR devkits doing this. The main limitation is that the displays aren't very good and it is hard to fit sufficient batteries.
gollark: Also, you could sort of gain extra senses of some possible value by mapping things like LIDAR output (AR glasses will probably have something like that for object recognition) and the local wireless environment onto the display.
