The talk will discuss the influence of Arts and Crafts architecture on the practice’s recent work. It will draw specifically on the work of Edwin Lutyens, Charles Voysey and Macaulay Baillie Scott as well as the wider principles of the Arts and Crafts including its use of history, precedent and archaeology. The combination of unlikely sources including both vernacular and classical buildings, humble and high crafted materials and elements from wildly different eras has informed projects including A House for Essex.
