The Glass House, Grade II listed building in Fulham, England.
The Glass House sits at 11-12 Lettice Street in Fulham and features four main gabled sections with paired windows on the ground floor. Above these are tall studio windows with curved tops, designed to provide the bright light needed for detailed craftwork.
Built in 1906, this structure began as a stained glass workshop founded by Mary Lowndes and Alfred Drury. The pair created a shared workspace for independent artists to practice their craft.
This building was a hub for stained glass artistry, drawing skilled craftspeople like Edward Liddall Armitage, Hugh Arnold, and Wilhelmina Geddes to work here. Artists valued the space for its design, which supported their detailed and specialized work.
The interior is not open to the public, but you can see the architectural details of the exterior from Lettice Street. Visiting during the day works best, as natural light highlights the window design and structure.
This space operated as a stained glass studio for nearly a century until 1993, when work relocated to Hampton. The shift marked the end of over 80 years of continuous artistic production within its walls.
