Virtual Tour - A night on the Tiles: the interior design of the tube

This is a virtual tour conducted live hosted via Zoom video conferencing where your guide will show slides and give a talk to accompany them. There will be the opportunity for questions both during and after the talk.

==================================================================

Tiling has been a key part of the design of tube station interiors for more than a century. Join Stephen as he explores this wonderful world, from the iconic Edwardian tile schemes, through the inter- war period, the distinctive 1960s Victoria line motifs, the quirky 1970s and 1980s one off designs leading to the industrial feel of the late 1990s . We finish with a brief look at the new Elizabeth line. Along the way we will also see a few artworks which are integral to some stations.
