It is claimed that many people don’t like the look of Oxley Woods houses, at least at first glance. We residents know that the truth is different, as we get to see the admiring looks of people passing by.
Of course it’s only natural that the residents here will champion our houses until the cows come home. After all, we’re the people who know that once you’ve experienced the natural light, ample spaces and clean lines of the designs it is difficult to contemplate living in a standard house again.
But of course it is always nice to have our point of view backed up by external experts. We knew that we lived in an iconic location, a haven of architectural brilliance in a sea of brick. And now we have further proof that we were right.
First there was the BBC, interviewing Gill for Radio 4 Moneybox. Then we had a visit from a TV production company contemplating locations for a possible series to be called ‘Living in the Future’.
But now we have something much more tangible:
Mugs.
They are funky, fun and fantastic. Just like our houses.
And if you know someone who lives here, now you know what to get them for Christmas.
All items are available from the stylish People Will Always Need Plates, featured as part of their Eclectic Avenue series.
