Peter Hemingway

Peter Hemingway

Peter Hemingway (1929-1995) was an award-winning English architect who practised mainly in Canada on public works.

Hemingway was born in Minster, Kent and after gaining a diploma from Rochester Technical College he emigrated to Canada in 1955. Serving briefly in the Alberta Department of Public Works, Hemingway founded his own practice in 1956. Hemingway won the Massey medal twice for his architecture: the Coronation Pool (1968-1970) and the Stanley Engineering Building (1968). However, his most well-known and recognizable building is probably the Muttart Conservatory, a group of pyramid-shaped greenhouses in the Edmonton river valley. In 1982 he served as President of the Alberta Association of Architects. He was a frequent contributor to professional publications.
