EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken circa 1937, showcases the modernist interior design of a group of houses located in Tewin, Hertfordshire. Designed by architect Mary B. Crowley in 1936, these innovative homes represent a significant departure from traditional architectural styles of the time. The image reveals a series of well-proportioned living and dining room spaces, characterized by their clean lines, minimalist aesthetic, and an emphasis on natural light. The use of monochromatic color palettes and geometric patterns further underscores the modernist ethos. Notable in the photograph is a passageway leading to a staircase, which serves as a visual connector between the various living areas. The staircase, with its sleek, minimalist design, is a testament to Crowley's commitment to functionality and form. Mary Crowley's designs for the Tewin houses were part of a larger movement towards modernist architecture in the UK during the interwar period. Her work showcases a unique blend of American modernist influences and a distinctly British sensibility, resulting in a body of work that continues to inspire and influence contemporary design. This photograph, from the March of the Women Collection at Mary Evans Prints Online, offers a rare glimpse into the past, providing us with a valuable record of an important moment in the history of modernist architecture.
