🌍 A true example of eco-tourism in action, with a focus on conservation and sustainability
🌿 A peaceful, green retreat that makes you forget you’re just moments away from Central London

Bauhaus Rewritten. The crossing found on High Street Kensington pays homage to the women of the Bauhaus, whose achievements are all too often overlooked in design history.

The names of pioneering designers including Anni Albers, Gertrud Arndt, Marianne Brandt and Ise Gropius, features in a typographic layout among glyphs that Lobe and his team created for the 2019 Design festival .

Clients were impressed by 2 ships mooring at St. Katherine”s dock .
The Royal Row barge was named Gloriana by Queen Elisabeth Ii and retained by Lord Sterling and the Maritime Heritage Trust to promote better use of the Thames and provide opportunities for charities involving young people . Galeón Andalucía is a replica of a 16th-17th century galleon, the only one in the world that sails in present days.

These ships were the type of vessel used by the Spanish Crown for maritime expeditions during the 16th through the 18th centuries. Galleons were intended to discover and then establish trade routes between Spain, America and the Philippines islands, and formed what was then called the “Fleet of the Indies”.

Did you know there are 8 Royal Parks in London and plenty of other parks too ? In 2019 London gained the title National Park city . We have enough trees to call it a forest. Today I had a wonderful day at St. James” Park with my clients . We saw a team of volunteers planting autumn crocuses and a few geese were walking on the Mall . Was it a “geese change “. before the real guard change 😃 ?
