George Finch (8 October 1930 – 13 February 2013) was a British architect.[1] He was a committed socialist who believed architecture had the power to transform the lives of post-war Londoners. Finch's ideals drove his passion for designing social housing, civic and environmental buildings for everyday people built to the highest building standards.[2][3][4]
