A house designed by Charles Voysey, South Parade, Bedford Park
This house, overlooking Acton Green, was one of Voysey's first commissions, dating from 1889 - when the architect was in his early thirties. The great majority of houses on the Bedford Park estate were designed either by Norman Shaw or his assistants, and are typically of red brick, cosy and conservative in style. Even now Voysey's house stands out in these surroundings, and when first built its style must have seemed quite adventurous.
Voysey is best known as a designer of substantial country houses. His artistic origins were in the Arts and Crafts movement, and he was elected Master of the Art Workers' Guild in 1924. (I remember seeing a stained glass window at the Guild's premises in Queen Square, London WC1, with images of Voysey and a number of his contemporaries).
Another notable Voysey building in West London is the little studio in St Dunstan's Road, W6 http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2433417.
