And mum’s dad was a senior engineer in ICI’s plastics division. So to me it already all does fit together.

Loved how the rooms devoted to these two things were placed alongside one another. As garden cities and fest of Britain are seen as part of different worlds. One more ‘conservative’ than the other, when they were coming from similar places all along.
