Description

At a mid-point along the ever evolving landscape of Hackney Road in Bethnal Green, a bright beacon of optimism rises above the recessed Georgian facades. The Blue House was designed by the architect Sean Griffiths under his highly revered collective, FAT Architecture, and exists today, not only as a landmark of the cultural forces that drove their practice, but as an accomplished, versatile and generally brilliant home. The building has been described by Griffiths as "a house within a house' owing to the joyful blue cladding, made doll-house-like through its whimsical crenellations. To observe it in the context of its quiet residential setting is like stumbling onto a film set. And yet, somehow, its exclamation achieves anonymity for the abode within; like hiding in plain sight. The house was designed to be used in a variety of manners and iterations, with separate entrances and staircases allowing for division into separate but connectable units for working and living. In its truest form, however, it is a flowing family home of almost 2,300 sq ft.
