Music rooms

NOTES: This page is part of sketchbook I of interior details of Carlton House. The drawings date from between 1787 and 1795 and were probably drawn by two of Holland's assistants, Charles Heathcote Tatham and Jean Pierre Theodore Trecourt. Although this drawing has the date 1722 on it, it must be a mistake. The house was demolished in 1825 and replaced by Carlton House Terrace, designed by John Nash.

NOTES: This room, designed for Richard Mallock, incorporated a gigantic gramaphone horn of reinforced plaster and was decorated with a mirrored wall around a low fireplace with electric fire, black Wilton carpet, and chairs and sofa covered in yellow fabric designed by the decorator Arundell Clarke. The room was dismantled in the 1940s.
