During the festival we will be extending our usual open days to include Sunday 15 and Sunday 22 September. Open House Festival is a London-wide festival that opens up and celebrates the city’s architecture, special sites and neighbourhoods, with open days and events taking place across all 33 London Boroughs. Also taking part in Open Houser this year – and within walking distance of Dorich House – is The Picker House, an untouched time capsule of late 1960s colour, innovation and design by architect Kenneth Wood with interiors by Conran Contracts and Conran Design Group. The Picker House is owned and managed by the Stanley Picker Trust. You must pre-book to join one of the guided tours of the house, gardens and gallery.
