People think that design is styling. Design is not style. It’s not about giving shape to the shell and not giving a damn about the guts. Good design is a renaissance attitude that combines technology, cognitive science, human need, and beauty to produce something that the world didn’t know it was missing.”
Paola Antonelli
Classic. Understated. Quintessentially British. WELCOME
28 OLD QUEEN STREET LONDON SW1
et in historic St. James, overlooking Birdcage Walk and the Royal Park, XXVIII Old Queen Street is located in the heart of the royal and political establishment, between Buckingham Palace and the Palace of Westminster. Whilst surrounded Sby the world renowned areas of Mayfair, Knightsbridge and Belgravia, St. James is recognised as a more discrete yet quietly authoritative area of the capital, known for its eminent occupants of past prime ministers, great industrialists, members of Parliament, the aristocracy and of course, royalty.
