Guy Kingdon Natusch (born 7 February 1921) is a New Zealand architect. He grew up in Hawke's Bay, where he practised until his retirement in 1997. ==Biography== Natusch was born in Hastings in 1921, the son of architect Rene Natusch. During World War II, he served in the New Zealand Division of the Royal Navy from 1942 to 1945 on destroyers and motor torpedo boats, serving in the North Sea and English Channel for D-Day operations. He was awarded the Distinguished Service Cross in May 1944, for good service against enemy light forces.〔〔 Natusch's grandfather, Charles Natusch, had arrived in New Zealand in 1886 and founded the architectural and quantity surveying firm, Natusch & Sons. Guy Natusch was active in the firm from 1946 to 1997, working on both commercial and residential projects. His style of architecture emphasized the building's function over its appearance. He also developed a basic housing project called Solwood Houses. Following his retirement from practice, Natusch remained active as a heritage advisor to the New Zealand Historic Places Trust, a role that which he began in the late 1960s.〔 In the 2003 New Year Honours, Natusch was appointed a Member of the New Zealand Order of Merit for services to architecture. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Guy Kingdon Natusch」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
