William Curtis GreenRA, FRIBA (16 July 1875 – 26 March 1960)[1] was an English architect, designer and barrister[2] who was based in London for much of his career. His works include the Dorchester Hotel, Wolseley House, New Scotland Yard, and the buildings, including the former Manor House, in Stockgrove Country Park. He was awarded the Royal Gold Medal in 1942. Around 20 of his designs are listed buildings. He was the younger brother of the craftsman and furniture designer Arthur Romney Green.
Born in Hampshire, Curtis Green studied architecture in West Bromwich and Birmingham. He became articled to John Belcher and trained at the Royal Academy Schools. Curtis Green took up his own practice in 1898 and was soon in demand. His first commissions included several power stations and small houses. He became an Associate Member of the Royal Academy of Arts in 1903 and won a first prize in the Romford Garden Suburb exhibition in 1910.
In 1921 he designed 160 Piccadilly for the Wolseley Motor Company, for which he was awarded a RIBA bronze medal. Several years later, he was commissioned by Barclays Bank to build several offices. He was elected as an associate of the Royal Academy in 1923, and became a full academician ten years later. He died in London in 1960 aged 84.
