Green House

Dates
11am to 7pm on Friday 9th & Saturday 10th July 2004

Location
Retrouvius, 2A Ravensworth Road, Kensal Green, London NW10 and others

Green House is a collective of four Kensal Green businesses all dealing, in some way, with the house or garden. Ammonite sell rare and unusual fossils and minerals, Habibi specialise in Moroccan tiles and interiors, Retrouvius is an architectural salvage and design warehouse, and Gardens on Site is a landscape design company and flower shop. The two previous Green House openings, in 2001 and 2002, attracted designers, architects and local residents, confirming Kensal Green as a new hotspot for London’s style aficionados. We hope you can join us this time. All four businesses are with a two minute walk from one another. For Press photographs or other information please call Adam Hills on 07778 210855

Ammonite bring you a unique collection of rare, unusual and highly decorative fossils and minerals from all corners of the globe. Their recently expanded gallery is now open to the public. You can also see some of these amazing ancient specimens on their website at www.ammonite2000.com.
