Emery Walker's House, Victorian house museum in Hammersmith Terrace, London, England.
Emery Walker's House is a four-story brick residence at 7 Hammersmith Terrace featuring a Doric porch and stucco ground floor with two windows across its front. The interior retains original furnishings, decoration, and design elements that showcase the Arts and Crafts aesthetic.
Emery Walker, a printer and photographer, moved into this residence in 1903 after spending 24 years at nearby number 3 on the same terrace. The house became a repository for the design principles and values of the Arts and Crafts movement during his time there.
The rooms display original Morris & Co. wallpapers, textiles, and furniture that showcase the Arts and Crafts movement of the late Victorian era. The interior preserves the design values and craftsmanship that defined this period.
The house is open only for guided tours which run between April and October, and advance booking is required through the Emery Walker Trust's website. Plan ahead as places fill quickly during the season.
The house contains the only surviving example of William Morris designed linoleum still displayed in its original domestic setting. This rare piece of Arts and Crafts production makes the interior a significant reference point for design history.
