Refreshment Room


This interior was created before The Peacock Room but has clear similar influences. Designed by Philip Webb & William Morris, 1865-70. It seems to me that this room did have some inluence on Whistler for the Peacock Room.

Often I find work that does not simply pull on trends or from the ever recycled styles. These are some of the stylised shoots that draw on something I have seen or know of.

This collection of images are in anticipation of the build up for the 2012 Olympics, i'm sure this will be reaching a saturation point within another year. Currently however - it still feels fresh.
