Emigré Houses open day

Tickets are now available for Robin Boyd Foundation’s next open day Emigré Houses in Studley Park, Kew on Sunday 22 March.

This Open Day includes a selection of houses in the renowned modernist precinct of Studley Park and Kew, by Anatol Kagan and other Emigré architects, Ernest Fooks, Ernest Milston, and Robert Grodski, son of an Emigré family.

As all the houses are in close proximity to each other, this is a wonderful opportunity for you to explore this remarkable enclave of modernist and recent exemplary design.  Walking maps, provided with the tickets, will highlight other notable houses in the area.
