The house was designed by architect Philip Speakman Webb who, as well as having a really cool middle name, is sometimes called the Father of Arts and Crafts Architecture.
Webb was a partner in the architecture firm of Morris & Co along
with other Arts and Crafts giants William Morris, Sir Edward Burne-Jones
and artist DG Rossetti. It’s a real mixture of styles, building techniques and decorative effects.
These include wallpapers and textiles designed by William Morris himself – these are the originals of styles that regularly come back into fashion now
