Kelsie Hornby, ASID, Elegant Designs, Inc. Hi Chris. Thanks for the positive comment. Small world as they say! This Woodley house is a private residence so unfortunately it's not available for touring. I love art deco as well and especially enjoyed the research involved in doing the project!

chris2869 Hi Kelsie ....,

Many thanks for your swift reply ....., I think you have the balance absolutely perfect ...., Art Deco is an amazingly difficult period to get in proportion and replicate ....., ensuring that you retain the high-end authenticity, which is also appropriate for a modern Life. I have been researching Art Deco for a number of years now.

Can you kindly tell me more about your practice and research into Woodley House. In the next two years I am looking at Building my own House in Berkshire, England and need to find an Interior Designer who shares my vision of the potential finish. I lived in Prague for a number of years and have been greatly influenced by the 'Alcron Hotel' ...., as well as 11301 Bridge House Road in Florida and the Hotel 'Del la Paix' in Cambodia.

It is my intention that from the exterior the House will indeed look like an original Art Deco Property ...., as you make your way to the back of the property it will have more of a modernist feel, inline with Mies Van Die Rohe. So from the rear Garden looking back at the house, the first floor will have that floating feel similar to the Barcelona Pavillion ...., to tell you a little bit about my circumstances, I am a single Parent and full-time Carer, I have two Profoundly Autistic Sons, so it is necessary for me to make the home 'Special Needs Friendly' ....,

I look forward to receiving your response at your convenience ....,

Kind Regards
Chris
