The Regent St Window project

Head down to Regent Street this week to catch glimpse of a new window installation project, from the Royal Institute of British Architects (RIBA). The 10 window displays fuse together concepts from leading architects and established retail brands, to create a fresh look on retail design.

The British Museum

The British Museum will never lose its charm to me. After walking through its grand entrance, you're hit by the mesmerising site of the sculpted ceiling and the wonderful shadows that bounce off every surface. I love visiting on a warm day when the air inside is thick and fuzzy, making the vast entrance feel kind of cosy. I sometimes visit just for this sight alone...

Art Deco Trail

After indulging in my love for Art Deco at the Apollo Victoria Theatre a couple of weeks ago, I decided to take myself on a little Art Deco adventure trail. London isn't mega famous for its Art Deco architecture, but there are some amazing examples dotted around, that are well worth a look. Check out this cute little map from the V&A for an idea of what is where. There are still a few I'm yet to see, but here are a few examples to get you started...

BBC Broadcasting House, Portland Place

Adelphi Theatre on the Strand

The Savoy hotel on the Strand

The Daily Telegraph building, Fleet Street

Daily Express Building...the lobby is stunning but not open to the public (boooo!), click here to see more.

The Ideal House National Radiator Company, on the corner of Argyle Street

The Hoover Building

The Pastels of Primrose Hill

The Natural History Museum Pt1 - Decorative Details

I think this is one of the most beautiful buildings in London. The decorative details within the architecture of the building are exquisite. So much so that you could lose yourself admiring it and not even get round to viewing the actual exhibits. It took me 20 mins to actually get through the front door, much to the amusement of the security guards! Whilst the man was off viewing the dinosaurs, I was entranced by the stone detailing and mosaic floors. See what you think…

I loved the monkeys that were climbing the arches, although some were a little sinister...
