EDITORS COMMENTS
Courtesy of the estate of Mrs. J.C. Robinson/Pollinger Ltd/ILN/Mary Evans The Sketch Ideal Home No. VI: Sports Without Broad Acres by W. Heath Robinson The problem of how to enjoy games and field sports when living in a block of flats was triumphantly solved in the sixth installation of W. Heath Robinson's Ideal Home designs, published in The Sketch magazine in 1933. This illustration, titled "Sports Without Broad Acres," depicts Heath Robinson's ingenious ideas for creating ample space for sports and recreation in a spatially challenged home. The scene takes place on a rooftop terrace, where residents of the apartment building engage in various activities. A man in a bowler hat plays cricket with a miniature set, while a woman in a flapper dress practices her golf swing on a miniature green. A group of children play soccer on a foldable pitch, and a man in a suit works out on a gym set that folds away when not in use. Heath Robinson's designs for The Sketch Ideal Home series were renowned for their whimsical and imaginative solutions to everyday problems. In this particular illustration, he demonstrates that even those living in urban environments can enjoy the pleasures of sports and the great outdoors, with a few clever design solutions. This historical image, published on the 30th of December, 1933, is one of 21 illustrations in The Sketch Ideal Home series. It is a testament to Heath Robinson's enduring influence on design and his ability to inspire creative solutions to the challenges of urban living. The Sketch magazine, founded in 1893, was a leading publication for fashion, society, and design in the early 20th century. The Ideal Home series was a popular feature that showcased innovative and imaginative designs for modern living spaces. This image is part of the extensive archive of historical illustrations available from Mary Evans Picture Library.
