Homage to the Salutation: A hidden Masterpiece

Stuart Martin, Robin Prater Host & Moderator: Martin Lutyens The Salutation is one of Lutyens’s most masterful essays into Neo-Georgian design. Located in Sandwich, Kent, the seemingly simple and straightforward design holds a myriad of surprises and intricacies. Speakers Stuart Martin Stuart first encountered Lutyens through the Patrick Nuttgens TV programme that coincided with the Hayward Gallery Exhibition in 1981. He pursued this interest at University, writing a dissertation on Lutyens’ Classical architecture, and beginning his own solo visits to the houses when he could. In his subsequent career as an architect of country houses, Stuart has sought to combine his reverence for Lutyens’ work, with its love of traditional forms and materials with sensitivity to the varying contexts of our own times. He has been a member of the Lutyens Trust for 20 years, and a member of the Events Committee for more than 10 years. Dr. Robin H.
