Wallis, Gilbert and Partners was a British architectural partnership responsible for the design of many Art Deco buildings in the UK in the 1920s and 1930s. It was established by Thomas Wallis (1873–1953) in 1914. Although the identity of ''Gilbert'' has not been established, later partners included Frederick Button, Douglas Wallis (1901–1968), Agbolahan Adesegun (1935–2008) and J. W. MacGregor (d. 1994). Notable buildings include the Hoover Factory and the Firestone Tyre Factory. ==Works== * The Old Vinyl Factory, Hayes, 1907 (former EMI factory complex) * Caribonum Factory, Leyton, London, 1918. * General Electrical Company Witton Works, Electric Avenue, Birmingham 1920, Grade II listed. * The Solex Factory, Marylebone Road, London, 1925. * Wrigley's Factory, Wembley, London, 1926. * The Shannon Factory, Kingston, London, 1928. * Firestone Tyre Factory, Great West Road, Brentford, Middlesex, 1928-1929 (Demolished 1980). * Pyrene Building, Great West Road, Brentford, 1929-1930 * Tower and extension to the 'Alaska' factory, Bermondsey, London 1930s. * Albion Motor Car Company Ltd Works, Scotstoun, Glasgow 1930. * India Tyre Factory, Inchinnan 1930-1931. * Daimler Hire Garage, 9 Herbrand Street, London 1931.〔(Daimler Hire Garage ) (Courtauld Institute of Art).〕 * British Bemberg Factory, Doncaster, Yorkshire, 1931. * Hoover Factory, Western Avenue, Perivale 1931-1938. * Victoria Coach Station, London, 1931-1932. * Coty Cosmetics Factory, Great West Road, Brentford, 1932. * ASEA Factory (latterly the Hawker Siddeley Power Transformer Factory before its closure in 2003),〔http://www.guardian-series.co.uk/news/455124.former_hawker_siddeley_site_set_for_transformation/〕 Waltham Forest, 1936. * Simmonds Aerocessories, later Beecham's Pharmaceuticals Factory, Great West Road, Brentford, 1936-1942.〔(Wallis House ) (Art of the State).〕 * Richard Klinger Factory, Sidcup, London, 1937.〔(Richard Klinger Factory ) (English Heritage).〕 * Tilling-Stevens Factory, Maidstone, Kent, 1917.〔(Tilling-Stevens Factory ) (British Listed Buildings).〕 The company also designed numerous smaller coach stations at:- *Amersham, Buckinghamshire *Hemel Hempstead, Hertfordshire *Hertford, Hertfordshire *Peckham, London (demolished 1995).〔(Peckham Bus station ) (Alternative Future Peckham).〕 *Reigate, Surrey *Windsor, Berkshire 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「Wallis, Gilbert and Partners」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
