Tamburlaine

Recently opened in the heart of Cambridge, The Tamburlaine is O'Callaghan Hotel Group’s first UK venture. The exquisite property features 155 magazine-perfect rooms, stunning designer common areas, and a lush, colonial style Garden Room where afternoon tea is served.

The accommodations’ design is seductively masculine, with dark wood paneling, polished concrete floors, and rich velvets. All units have floor-to-ceiling windows and luxurious marble baths, and the handmade King Koil beds are dressed in crisp Egyptian cotton. The stylish bespoke furniture is beautifully complemented by china and exclusive retro pieces, and the suites boast gracious alfresco dining terraces.

Dining options range from seasonal English fare in the Brasserie to fine food and wine pairings in the elegant wood-paneled Library to artisan sandwiches at Steam, the hotel’s deli. Photos: James McDonald

Textile Art by Joana Vasconcelos Portuguese artist Joana... crss





















Textile Art by Joana Vasconcelos

Portuguese artist Joana Vasconcelos (born in 1971 in Paris, France) creates sculptures and installations that explore consumer culture, collective identity, and our assumptions about what constitutes art. She creates large-scale installations, often with performance components, which encourage viewers to walk through and touch them.  She is also known for enveloping everyday objects - pianos, laptops, commercially produced decorative objects - in crocheted or knitted material. Through such works, she contrasts mass-produced and hand-crafted and alludes to our values and associations with each. Follow her on Facebook.
