Spent a fascinating afternoon at the Soane Collect Spent a fascinating afternoon at the Soane Collection‘s archives studying drawings from 1790 of Kinnaird Castle in Scotland. Just at the start of a huge project to recreate the building as it was designed by James Playfair, a contemporary of Sir John Soane. Really looking forward to getting started on the model!

What’s my work about? Transforming the familiar What’s my work about? Transforming the familiar into the remarkable in miniature. Why do people want models, especially in an age of computer renders? I think that modelmaking can express a vision of the world which inspires us to look more closely and cherish the detail which ordinarily may pass unnoticed. When making my model house fronts, mostly of Victorian or Georgian properties I am able to find forgotten rhythms in the architecture; the alignment of windows or the proportions of the building of which may have gone unnoticed for years. When the building is displayed in isolation, mounted in a frame people see the beauty of the house as a whole. #Londonarchitecture #architecturelovers #architecturalart #Londonliving #LivingSouth #Dulwich #listedbuilding #historichouses #heritagearchitecture #landmark #housefront #houseportrait #handmade #movinghouse #smallbusiness
It has to be said that I’m famously bad at maths It has to be said that I’m famously bad at maths. I can, on the other hand manage geometry, which many suppose are closely related! I’m not so sure. Here are a few custom made pieces of brass I’ve produced for a tricky roof tile effect and a fluted column for my latest project. #modelmaking #modeldetail #miniature #model #architecturalgifts #Londonarchitecture #architecturelovers #architecturalart #Londonliving #LivingSouth #Dulwich #listedbuilding #historichouses
