Charterhouse Square, Barbican, London EC1M 6AN, UK

BOLD ECHO
Auditorium for Conversations at Clerkenwell

The rich history of patterns and ornaments adorning the walls and ceilings at Charterhouse sparked Kapitza’s creativity:

"On our first visit to Charterhouse, the ornate swirls on The Great Chamber’s ceiling immediately caught our eye – both whimsical and rooted in geometry. We felt a deep connection to the artisans behind them and were inspired to reimagine their work in the auditorium design. The resulting artwork is a contemporary homage to history. We reimagined these historic ornaments with a modern twist, infusing them with our signature geometric style and bold colours to bring energy and vibrancy to the Clerkenwell Design Week auditorium."
