Powell and Moya: The Architects Who Made London with Maxwell Hutchinson




Royal Academy of Arts (archive) show

Summary: Philip Powell RA and Jacko Moya launched their practice when they won the competition for the Churchill Gardens housing estate in Pimlico, bringing a human quality to the modernist style. The incredible structure of the Skylon at the Festival of Britain has stayed in people's imagination, while Powell and Moya's mark was left on London with the Museum of London and the Queen Elizabeth II Conference Centre, as architectural historian Kenneth Powell discusses with series presenter Maxwell Hutchinson.
