1976 LYONS PRESCHOOL PLAYHOUSE For Maxine Davies

Maxine was Teacher in charge at Lyons Preschool and she asked me to design a special playhouse more suited in scale and which could house the Home Corner where young children could play in a make believe kitchen, doll’s bedroom etc. It was made by a small team of fathers who had some building experience – one of whom (I learned today) could neither read nor write – no wonder we got a concrete slab instead of the raised wooden floor specified on the drawing – nobody told me. I didn’t suggest the blue exterior !
