It was fi fty years ago this year The fi rst Habitat store opened in the heart of swinging London on 11 July 1964. And the effect was electrifying. It not only transformed our interiors, it changed the way we all lived - for good. When designer Terence Conran opened the fi rst Habitat store in Fulham Road, his aim was to cater to ‘young moderns with lively tastes’. His timing was impeccable. The younger generation who had grown up in the years of post-war austerity were eager for Fifty years on and Habitat change. There was a real hunger for modern design, already whetted by the Festival of Britain but yet to be fulfi lled. continues to evolve and raise Habitat answered the call. The store itself made a bold statement. eyebrows with its seasonal With its stripped-down interior, ‘cool’ piped jazz and trendy young collections - each focused assistants, it became a destination in its own right and redefi ned The revolution continues - the retail experience. But it was the products on offer that had the on Tottenham Court Road biggest impact. Simple, practical and accessibly priced, they on its original mantra that started a revolution. Who today can imagine the bedroom without Habitat opened its fi rst store in the right place at the right time “useful can be beautiful and the duvet or the kitchen minus wok? Well they were introduced to and with the right attitude. As Terence Conran put it, “We see the British public by Habitat. ourselves as the Mary Quant of the furnishing world”. The new beautiful can be affordable”. store in up-and-coming Chelsea quickly became the place to be seen, frequented by musicians, fi lm stars, celebrities and royalty. Fashionable though it was, however, Habitat was here to stay and the opening of its second store in Tottenham Court Road proved it. This after all was London’s furniture and homeware street, as it still is today. Habitat had arrived. The genius of Habitat, as designer Tom Dixon has pointed out, was in pioneering something which become mainstream, “the thing we now call Lifestyle”. And the great British public lapped it up. Moving with the times Habitat went from strength to strength, opening six UK stores by the end of the 1960s and introducing innovation after innovation. In 1969, it launched its fi rst mail-order catalogue taking the Habitat lifestyle to an even broader audience. It went on to pioneer fl at-pack furniture, commissioned affordable prints from artists such as Hockney and Paolozzi and, in 1973, opened its fi rst international store in Montparnasse, Paris. As the recession hit in the 70s, it responded with the Basic Habitat range targeted at a cash-strapped market that still wanted good design. And one of its literally biggest innovations was the 1977 Habitat House Pack, containing everything needed to furnish a three-bedroom house, right down to the salt and pepper grinders. Success inevitably brings challenges and, with increasing pressure from new names inspired by its example, Habitat has had its share of problems. But you can’t keep a great brand down and a revival is under way.

  • St Marylebone Parish Church Records of Burials in the Crypt 1817-1853
    Record of Bodies Interred in the Crypt of St Marylebone Parish Church 1817-1853 This list of 863 names has been collated from the merger of two paper documents held in the parish office of St Marylebone Church in July 2011. The large vaulted crypt beneath St Marylebone Church was used as place of burial from 1817, the year the church was consecrated, until it was full in 1853, when the entrance to the crypt was bricked up. The first, most comprehensive document is a handwritten list of names, addresses, date of interment, ages and vault numbers, thought to be written in the latter half of the 20th century. This was copied from an earlier, original document, which is now held by London Metropolitan Archives and copies on microfilm at London Metropolitan and Westminster Archives. The second document is a typed list from undertakers Farebrother Funeral Services who removed the coffins from the crypt in 1980 and took them for reburial at Brookwood cemetery, Woking in Surrey. This list provides information taken from details on the coffin and states the name, date of death and age. Many of the coffins were unidentifiable and marked “unknown”. On others the date of death was illegible and only the year has been recorded. Brookwood cemetery records indicate that the reburials took place on 22nd October 1982. There is now a memorial stone to mark the area. Whilst merging the documents as much information as possible from both lists has been recorded. Additional information from the Farebrother Funeral Service lists, not on the original list, including date of death has been recorded in italics under date of interment.

  • Dylan Thomas - Poems
    Classic Poetry Series Dylan Thomas - poems - Publication Date: 2012 Publisher: Poemhunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive Dylan Thomas(27 October 1914 – 9 November 1953) Dylan Marlais Thomas was a Welsh poet and writer who wrote exclusively in English. In addition to poetry, he wrote short stories and scripts for film and radio, which he often performed himself. His public readings, particularly in America, won him great acclaim; his sonorous voice with a subtle Welsh lilt became almost as famous as his works. His best-known works include the "play for voices" Under Milk Wood and the celebrated villanelle for his dying father, "Do not go gentle into that good night". Appreciative critics have also noted the craftsmanship and compression of poems such as "In my Craft or Sullen Art", and the rhapsodic lyricism in "And death shall have no dominion" and "Fern Hill". <b>Early Life</b> Dylan Thomas was born in the Uplands area of Swansea, Glamorgan, Wales, on 27 October 1914 just a few months after the Thomas family had bought the house. Uplands was, and still is, one of the more affluent areas of the city. His father, David John ('DJ') Thomas (1876–1952), had attained a first-class honours degree in English at University College, Aberystwyth, and was dissatisfied with his position at the local grammar school as an English master who taught English literature. His mother, Florence Hannah Thomas (née Williams) (1882–1958), was a seamstress born in Swansea. Nancy, Thomas's sister, (Nancy Marles 1906–1953) was nine years older than he. Their father brought up both children to speak only English, even though he and his wife were both bilingual in English and Welsh.
