About Sir Giles Gilbert Scott
Sir Giles Gilbert Scott (1880–1960) was a British architect whose career spanned from the Gothic Revival Liverpool Cathedral to the iconic red telephone box. The catalogue holds 1 of his works: the original Bankside Power Station in London, now Tate Modern — a monumental brick cathedral of industry whose single chimney and vast turbine hall were designed with a civic grandeur uncommon in power generation.
