John Miller (architect)

John Harmsworth Miller CBE (18 August 1930 – 24 February 2024) was a British architect. He is best known for major projects with universities and museums in England and Scotland including Tate Britain, the Whitechapel Gallery, the Fitzwilliam Museum, the Scottish National Gallery, and Newham College, Cambridge.[1][2] Born on 18 August 1930, Miller died on 24 February 2024, at the age of 93.[3]

Sir Nicholas Serota, a British curator and former director of the Tate and the Whitechapel Gallery, has commented on Miller's work: "Like a well cut suit, the elegance of his architectural language has an ease which conceals the rigour and determination of his practice."[4]
