Scope and Content

File documents an executed interior renovation project for a new bar and reception hall at the Mostyn Hotel, London, England. The existing lounge was transformed into a bar, and the existing dining room was connected to a new reception hall. Drawings show designs for lighting, furniture, screens and bar fittings. The project, and some materials in this file, was published in 'Architectural Design', Vol. 32, (May 1962), 260-261. Material in this file was produced between 1959 and 1964, and predominantly between 1960 and 1964.
