The Red House - a special birthday treat



So as today was my birthday (happy birthday to me) myself and his Jammyness took the day off in order to explore a house that I have been dreaming of for a while. It was at universty that I first found myself drawn to the Pre Raphaelites, we looked at the literature of the movement for a week in Victorian Lit, but that was enough, I was hooked. Doing some internet reseach I stumbled across some fabric designs by William Morris, their natural forms and the beauty of the designs struck me immediately and after researching him his whole ethos really appealed to me, A dissertation about the Pre Raphaelites followed and its since become a bit of a life long obsession. So we went, and this is what we saw...
