A vibrant study of one of the iconic figures of twentieth-century design, whose Romantic, whimsical, and wholly original style influenced a generation of architects and decorators. Oliver Messel was one of Englands foremost interior designers of the twentieth century, whose work also spanned the worlds of the stage design, film, and architecture. Born into a creative family of wealthy bankers, his career began in 1925 designing for Sergei Diaghilevs Ballets Russes. He eventually became an internationally celebrated designer, branching out into drama, film, opera, interior design, textiles, and architecture. Romanticism and eccentricity were hallmarks of Messels style. His sets were famed for their exquisite delicacy, impossible detail, subtlety of color, and inventive use of materials. From the 1930s to the postwar period, Messel explored the fields of interior design and architecture, eventually designing numerous houses built on the islands of Mustique and Barbados for the jet set of the 1960s and 70s, among them Antony Armstrong-Jones (Earl of Snowdon) and Princess Margaret. Oliver Messel is filled with previously unpublished images that chronicle a unique, eccentric, and, until now, largely overlooked oeuvre that reached across several mediums and continues to influence insiders from the worlds of interior design, architecture, and fashion.Edited by Thomas Messel with an introduction by Lord Snowdon, an epilogue by Anthony Powell and texts by Stephen Calloway, Keith Lodwick, Jeremy Musson, and Sarah Woodcock Tags Royal Opera House - The Royal Ballet Register Sign in Sign In Obituary: Lord Snowdon - BBC News Image caption The aviary at London zoo was regarded as a triumph of design It was during a debate on the mobility of people with physical Obituary: Lord Snowdon - BBC News Image caption The aviary at London zoo was regarded as a triumph of design It was during a debate on the mobility of people with physical disabilities that Review: The Royal Ballet's Sleeping Beauty The The Sleeping Beauty has a lot working in its favour: the choreography is created by the undisputed master of the Ballet Blanc era Marius Petipa and later given a The History of Mustique the legendary private island in History of Mustique As legends go the The Aristocrat the Princess and the Rockstar is pretty good only this wasnt a legend it was true Affordable Mustique Holiday - Interior & Garden Design Ideas The Caribbean island of Mustique has long been a favoured haunt of the rich and famous Even though most retreat here to escape the limelight stories of hedonistic Antony Armstrong-Jones 1st Earl of Snowdon - Wikipedia Antony Charles Robert Armstrong-Jones 1st Earl of Snowdon GCVO RDI (7 March 1930 13 January 2017) commonly known as Lord Snowdon was a British photographer 1960 Oscarsorg Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Supporting Actress winner for The Diary of Anne Frank with presenter Edmond O'Brien Collections: theatre Theatre Collection University of Collections: theatre All theatre-based collections held by the Theatre Collection are listed below Not all of our collections are catalogued but they may still be The Dorchester - Wikipedia The new Dorchester Hotel was feted with a grand opening on 18 April (21 April also cited) 1931 by Lady Violet Astor The Dorchester quickly gained reputation as a
