On This Day 7 January 1904 Sir Frederick Gibberd RA was born in Coventry

Gibberd set up a private practice in 1930, winning his first commission for Pullman Court in Streatham at the age of 23 .

Frederick Gibberd Architects were appointed to design one of the chief examples of International Modern style developments in Britain, located in Streatham Hill. The design of 218 flats with a variety of one- to four-room units are organised over three blocks bound by a belt of mature trees to diminish noise disruption.
