As it’s located in the existing Sea Containers House building, the work of designer Tom Dixon is focused mainly on the interior design, but even from the outside his renovation of the […]
What’s the best gift you can buy an Interior Designer or Architect? Probably this… the 1,210 brick Lego Architecture Studio Clever (and generous) wife!
