A second tranche of images from Terence Conran's 'New House Book' of 1985.
The first image is a page of photographs taken in Leon Krier's Belsize Park flat in North London. In the mid-eighties I began to know the place quite well. The library was at the front looking out on to the street. There was, I think, a grand piano in the room, though I may be mistaken. The rustication in the hall contained all sorts of storage, with a tiny bathroom at the far end on the right. Anyway, outside of the world of the country house, I think it must be one of the stylish rooms I have yet experienced. I wonder if it still exists. (20.06.26 An informant tells it does.)
