Round the edges of the raised oak floors is what might be called a SPAB joint, a gap edged by steel channels and, while the resulting slot may cause cleaning problems (not too bad with vacuum apparatus), it does clearly define the difference between new and old. Ricciotti's design revolves around the idea of making the new impinge as lightly as possible on the old, of creating something akin to a theatrical set; and to this end (rather in the SPAB manner) he enlisted two artists, Elizabeth Cresseveur and Josep van Lieshout and architect, Francois Deslaugiers. 4 In his use of new materials and techniques he went further than most of Morris's SPAB followers who tended for instance to add to a stone building in stone, but used in a way that clearly showed it to be new work. |
