artist Posted April 1, 2006 Report Share Posted April 1, 2006 it's years since I went to the Ideal Home Exhibition in London. Just had a lovely time looking at all the pictures in the gallery.Still some very odd ideas - that cluttery wall design in a kitchen - the RED kitchen worktops, couldn't live with that! - the strange light like a load of spaghetti - the freebie foods and the healthy lunch of crisps and beer!Oh, and the sore aching feet!Thanks for the great pics - I really enjoyed them. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catgate Posted April 1, 2006 Report Share Posted April 1, 2006 Just looking at those pictures makes me realise the enormous damage done to British life by a man called Barry Bucknell !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thos Posted April 1, 2006 Report Share Posted April 1, 2006 I now see why all the comments were made on this thread rather than in the gallery. I found the pictures very interesting. It is a long time since I visited the IHE, but I used to enjoy the variety of experience and it doesn't look to have become any less variable.Good pictures with a great matching commentary. Thanks, Tankus.Thos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tankus Posted April 1, 2006 Report Share Posted April 1, 2006 Incidentally that purple kitchen ...doesnt seem to come across as well in the photos as it did close up ... All the walls were glass with the colour underneath ..making it a sort of translucence slightly lit effect ..the aluminium floor is seriously naff ..(and a bugger to keep clean) .... but there were drawer freezers and fridges (German) that glided out just by touching the corner of the unit ... a drawer dishwasher too ...that kitchen would look sooo good in low light .... black granite flooring perhaps ....the shelving looked like art Just the way the light reflected I soo wish I was rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
