a talk by Paul Velluet
Proceeds towards the Museums 21st Birthday Renewal Appeal (2nd Phase) The Arts and Crafts Movement - one of the most significant movements in design and architecture of the late-19th and early-20th centuries - drew upon the vernacular tradition and celebrated the continuing relevance and value of the work of the individual craftsman. Although relatively small in number, surviving examples of Arts and Crafts buildings, structures, stained-glass, metalwork and schemes of interior design and furnishing in Richmond deserve attention and assessment. In this talk, Paul Velluet will identify and examine this work and its value to the Town today. Paul Velluet is a chartered architect who has worked in both private practice and in the public sector, specialising in building and area conservation. He was an Assistant Regional Director for London for English Heritage and is now a senior associate with a major Central London architectural practice and an independent consultant. Paul serves on many national committees related to architectural history and conservation. He was born in East Sheen, is a long time resident of the Borough and has played major roles in several of its societies and institutions.
