“BLUE ROOMS IS A PRIVATE RESIDENCE IN OXFORDSHIRE INSPIRED BY GEORGE HARRISON’S LOVE OF BLUES MUSIC AND THE FAMOUS BEATLES TRACK FOR THE BLUE. INTERIOR DESIGN, INDUSTRIAL DESIGN, PAINTING AND SCULPTURE BLEND TOGETHER TO CREATE A CONTEMPORARY ENVIRONMENT CONCEIVED, DESIGNED AND MADE IN ENGLAND.

GIVEN A BRIEF TO CREATE SOMETHING MODERN AND CREATIVE, THE IDEA BECOMES THE CORE OF THE PROJECT. NATURAL AND SYNTHETIC MATERIALS ARE BROUGHT TOGETHER WITH BRITISH CRAFTSMANSHIP AND ADVANCED MANUFACTURING, TRANSFORMING THE BRIEF INTO A FULLY CONSIDERED ENVIRONMENT.

EVERY ELEMENT IS DEVELOPED FROM THE CENTRAL IDEA – FROM THE ARCHITECTURE AND INTERIORS TO THE FURNITURE, LIGHTING, SCULPTURE AND OBJECTS. THE DISCIPLINES BECOME INTERCHANGEABLE, ALLOWING ART AND DESIGN TO FLOW INTO ONE ANOTHER.”
