What We’re Reading: Gingerbread House in The World of Interiors

May 27th, 2015

This article is more than a year old and may contain information that is out of date. Sorry about that.

In this month’s edition of The World of Interiors, our director Matt Gibberd interviews the architect Laura Dewe Mathews about the ‘Gingerbread House’ she designed for herself in Hackney.

Built on the site of a 19th-century box factory, the house is clad in fancy-butt cedar shingles, and won the Architects’ Journal Small Projects award in 2013.
