Pitzhanger Manor & Gallery
News Story
Steeped in history and surrounded by gardens this extraordinary building was designed, built and lived in by one of Britain’s most influential Architects, Sir John Soane. In his countryside manor, Soane hosted lavish dinner parties and entertained artists and poets alike. In 2015 the project to meticulously restore the house began, peeling back layers of history, extensions and overpainting and returning Pitzhanger to Soane’s original design. With its stripped classical detail, canopy domed ceilings, radical decorative paint schemes and inventive use of space and light, with many unique architectural elements.
