  • This is Monocle on Design,

  • a show where we discuss everything from architecture and craft to furniture and graphic design.

  • I'm Nick Minise.

  • On today's program, we find out how Sir John Soane was quite,

  • And we discuss the links between architecture

  • the Brutalist.

  • Plus a visit to a pottery studio and exhibition space in London.

  • All that coming up on Monocle On Design.
