STYLE NV - HOMES WE LOVE

Standing in front of Roberta's home, you could be forgiven for thinking that it was just another traditional Georgian  house in Hampstead. But like one of those delightful Georgian writing cabinets you occasionally see on Antique's Road Show, as you begin to enter the home, secret chambers and interconnecting compartments reveal themselves. Once the local workhouse, the building has been a hospital, a school and more recently converted into apartments. Roberta bought the building and set about converting it back to one beautiful family home with the help of architect duo, Serrano Evans

STYLE NV - RAVE - Sophie Cook Ceramics

There is a human quality to Sophie Cook's vases. Her arrangement in rainbow of tall, short, fat and thin porcelain remind me of a queue of people. Their thin necks holding up the lip 'heads', above a round body. I feel that Sophie herself, to some extent considers the vases to have personalities, when she says that she likes to see them "as a three dimensional still life that when viewed from different angles create new relationships between the pieces".


Each piece is hand thrown on her wheel and because of the fragile nature of porcelain, only three vases can be made a day.
