The Wolseley Dining Room
Piccadilly London
Commissioned to design & paint gilded art work for the main dining room.
The design, inspired by the Viennese Secessionist movement and the work of Gustav Klimt, was created for the vaulted ceilings using colour-graded gilding, the scheme features ornamental motifs and flowing linear forms characteristic of the movement. The subtle tonal shifts in the gilding enhance the ceiling’s curves, while creating an atmospheric effect. This approach combines historic reference with a contemporary sensitivity to material and light.
