- Kevin’s approach to the interplay between people and their homes
- The London Water Tower was one of the most memorable Grand Designs of recent years
- Jacob’s Ladder in Oxfordshire sets the standard for how Kevin things new homes should be designed.
Today we need to talk about Kevin McCloud MBE, our #mancrushmonday #mancrushforever. Our favourite middle-aged man in a hi-vis jacket brought unusual modern architecture into the mainstream and we love his scepticism and his learned, on point summaries at the end of each programme.
His approach continues to inspire our own Sturman & Co. philosophy that thoughtful and considered interior design can make living not only more beautiful, but better, simpler and happier.
Kevin also endorses homeowners’ decisions to re-use and reclaim items, as well as mixing old with new, which we love. A particular favourite episode was the coloured art deco bathroom featured here. Look out for a re-run of the programme, as the pictures really don’t do the finished room justice.
