LASSCO “Use soft fabrics in unusual ways: in frames or hung on walls. Ham House is the best example of how to do this, but we can’t all afford a set of tapestries, so why not plump for a pretty quilt or rug from the North Country? It will improve the scale of the room and soften the acoustics to give it an intimate air. There’s something quite grand about them but a bit of ostentation in moderation is fine. Our signature style at ‘LASSCO’ will always be English shabby chic, even though it’s been chewed over many times in gastropubs. The winning formula is always a combination of strong brownwood furniture, symmetrical arrangement and red and gold accents. Never underestimate the power of a reflective surface or soft wax finish, either. Subconsciously it implies a room is clean and well-maintained.” - Adrian Amos, Owner, ‘LASSCO’. Established in London’s East End ’LASSCO’ has dealt in reclamation and salvage since 1979. Bridging the gap between the demolition trade and architectural design - you’ll find architectural salvage, decorative and garden antiques, doors, entranceways, woodwork, pub, bygones, bathrooms, metalwork, panelling, lighting and reclaimed wood flooring. Plus ‘Brunswick House Café’ if you get a little peckish. London's best-known reclamation yard (which now has an Oxfordshire outpost) has been selling reclaimed goods for over 40 years. Goods range from the basic to the stupendous – go looking for a doorknob and leave with a wrought-iron balcony. All three venues have on-site restaurants. ‘LASSCO’, 30 Wandsworth Road, Vauxhall, London SW8 2LG. ‘Ropewalk’, 41 Maltby Street, Bermondsey, London SE1 3PA. ‘Three Pigeons’, London Road, Milton Common, Oxfordshire OX9 2JN. #neonurchin #neonurchinblog #dedicatedtothethingswelove #suzyurchin #ollyurchin #art #music #photography #fashion #film #design #words #pictures #love #dukeofbrunswick #vauxhall #jacksonboxer #brunswickhousecafé #curated #architecturalsalvage #demolitiontrade #extraordinary #ornate #architecturaldesign #adrianamos #LASSCO (at Lassco) https://www.instagram.com/p/Cj40VctIrro/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
