Ivor Smith (architect)


Ivor Stanley Smith was an English architect, responsible in part for Park Hill in Sheffield under the auspices of J. Lewis Womersley.
He was a committed pacifist, and as a conscientious objector in the Second World War, he did farm work at Piggotts, the community in the Chilterns created by the sculptor Eric Gill.
In the 1970s he was partnered with Cailey Hutton. Together they were responsible for developments such as Morant House, which is a modern-for-its-time building for social housing.
Written works include Architecture an Inspiration in paperback, published in 2014.
National Life Stories conducted an oral history interview with Ivor Smith in 2016 for its Architects Lives' collection held by the British Library.
