Miska Miller-Lovegrove

Miska Miller-Lovegrove and Mathilde Bretillot are set on reinventing the art fair experience. Their remarkable, pared back design for the first edition of Draw Art Fair London, at Saatchi Gallery 17-19 May 2019, will put art before spectacle.

Miska describes the minimalist setting: “From the moment they walk into the exhibition space, viewers will see nothing but art in their sightline. Free standing booths in the centre of the rooms will emphasise a museum like setting so you can really concentrate on drawing.” The designers have created minimalist furniture throughout the fair to accentuate the simplicity of the fair’s structure, giving pride of place to the artworks.

The Electric Barge

You may have seen The Electric Barge, a big blue, silent-running electrically powered boat, which is host to events for up to 60 people, cruising past GWS on trips between Ladbroke Grove and Camden Lock via Little Venice. In the past few years, we’ve welcomed teams from Tom Dixon, Nike, Pinterest, ITV, Frieze, Google and many others on board to party, plan or ponder.

All of our profit from commercial hire is ploughed straight back into supporting our charitable education project, The Floating Classroom. Your hire will directly support local school children to learn more about the natural world, to develop a sense of kinship with it and – we hope – to become better guardians of it. Saving the world one event at a time!

The Meanwhile Gardens Classroom is their first project on dry land, and will see them deliver 20 learning sessions at a pop-up gazebo classroom in Meanwhile’s Courtyard Garden.

Pupils at local primary schools will take part in two sessions each over the summer term. The first will see them plant flowers, vegetables and herbs and learning how to cultivate them over the coming weeks. In the second – delivered 6-8 weeks later, pupils will return to harvest what they have grown in order to prepare, cook and eat a celebratory communal meal.

Beautiful Edwardian House by Haine & Co.

Haine & Co. have handed back to their client this 7 bedroom detached Edwardian house in Wimbledon complete with an extensive two storey contemporary extension incorporating a luxury en-suite bathroom plus a 1000sqft open plan living/kitchen/family room.

The client purchased the house despite misgivings about the main reception rooms and kitchen being poorly lit by natural light.

The southern end of the existing house had previously been remodelled in the 1970’s and 1980’s resulting in poorly connecting and dark family rooms. This was dealt with by demolishing all non-original spaces to the south end of the house and replacing them with a contemporary two storey structure reflecting the existing rear elevation and footprint, the vertical and pitched elements clad in dark grey zinc with huge ground floor glazed sliding panels flooding the enormous family room with light.

The entire side and end walls of the original house were demolished at ground level to open up the centre of the house to natural light, requiring considerable structural alterations.
