This large project was to be completed in one month, and therefore required me to bring together a team of skilled model makers. As well as making the actual house itself we were required to decorate it as specified and make all of the furniture.  Despite being a big job with a short deadline it was a really interesting and enjoyable project.

 

Throughout the construction of Argyle Place, Taylor Wimpey Central London sent professional photographers to visit us in the workshop. These pictures can be seen in our Gallery.

 

As well as capturing our project through photography, Taylor Wimpey Central London wanted to promote their development with the aid of film.  Although throughout my career in the film industry I have always chosen to stay behind the camera I did agree to do an interview for them which you can see below.
