Biographical/Administrative Information: | In his autobiography, The Time of my Life in Architecture (Artifice, 2016), Maxwell writes: Practically all my architectural work in London has been concerned with the South Bank of the Thames: first I had a summer job working for Hugh Casson on the Festival of Britain, which was on the South Bank, working on the Homes and Gardens Pavilion. Then came Block 7A of St Thomas’ Hospital, while working for Holford-Creed. Then came the flats at Royal Street, Lambeth, for the same architects. Then, working in the public sector at the London County Council, it turned out I was in charge of a group working on the Festival Hall. (p. 46)
