Four 4*4 metre ceramic gateways in Granary Square, King's Cross, as the entrance feature for Design Junction, London Design Festival 2017. A collaboration with Turkish Ceramics.

"Gateways was intended to promote Turkish ceramics, but it far exceeded its brief, becoming the visual focus for the whole festival."

From the Ishtar Gate of Babylon, the Safavid facades of Isfahan's Naqsh-e Jahan Square, and Sinan's divine Ottoman mosques, to the maiolica cloisters of Santa Chiara in Naples, the gothic terracotta of the soaring Woolworth building in New York, and the famous red glazed ceramic Underground Stations of London, ceramics have always been, and continue to be, both the most historic, resonant and traditional, as well as the most fresh, perpetually surprising, delightful and exciting of architectural materials. There is no other architectural treatment that has remained as fresh, relevant and cool as ceramics has from a thousand years BC, right through into the twenty-first century.
