    October 3, 2018

  • Focus On Harrow: Why this west London suburb is popular with families and first time buyers

    September 28, 2018

     With inner city London gradually dividing itself into a series of ‘villages’, mimicking the community, farmers markets and independent high streets of semi-rural life, what’s the point of suburbs anymore? Places like Harrow have traditionally been quite pedestrian places, attracting families to its healthy stock of semi-detached houses and good quality schools. The ultimate – [...]

  • The Wife film review: Glenn Close serves up a career-best performance as Nobel laureate’s beleaguered spouse

    September 28, 2018

     What happens when you win the Nobel Prize? Does a peace dove deliver the news by flying telegram? Is there a banquet of all your favourite foods? Can you invite your mum? This simple dispersal of news becomes one of many fascinating aspects of The Wife. Based on a bestselling novel by Meg Wolitzer, it’s [...]

    September 26, 2018

  • They’re already a way of life for tens of thousands of people, but are water cities the answer to climate change, rising sea levels and the housing crisis?

    September 25, 2018

       How do you solve a problem like the Houses of Parliament? The neo-Gothic palace, parts of which are nearly a thousand years old, is crumbling and MPs voted recently to decant to another building for around six years – most likely to nearby Whitehall – while refurbishment works are carried out. So far, so [...]

    September 25, 2018

      Did you know that the global fashion industry is on track to consume over a quarter of the world’s annual carbon allowance by 2050? Stella McCartney does and she’s been travelling the world with sailing wonderwoman Dame Ellen MacArthur shouting about it for the last couple of years now. Perhaps that’s why so many [...]

  • Kanye West, rap’s most enigmatic star, has dreams of making affordable, brutalist homes

    September 24, 2018

    The students were a combination of shocked and awed when their lecturer jumped on top of a desk and cried, “The world can be saved through design!” It could have been a scene from 1989’s Dead Poets Society, but in fact it was an overexcited Kanye West taking a class at Harvard Graduate School of [...]
