He was a student at the Royal Academy School of Architecture in the 1900s and was elected an Associate of theRoyal Institute of British Architectsin 1902. By 1903 he was a student and assistant at the Central School of Arts and Crafts (later known as the Central School of Art and Design) in London, where William Lethaby was principal and a great influence on him. He then oversaw the design of the new school in Southampton Row from 1905-8. From here, he became an architect for London County Council, was involved with many London societies and was a founding member of theKelmscott Fellowship, a forerunner toThe William Morris Society. His large and varied collection was a reflection of his wide interest in the arts. His archive was purchased by The William Morris Society in 2005.The Irish horticulturist and journalist WilliamRobinson (1838-1935) had a marked effect on the textile arts during the final decades of the nineteenth century. Author ofThe Wild Garden(1870) andThe English Flowered Garden(1883), Robinson rejected the artificiality and formality of High Victorian pattern gardening in favour of naturalised plantings of perennial shrubs and climbers. This approach found favour with Arts & Crafts textiles designers at the time including May Morris.
