Entering the charming, 19th century cobbled street of Iliffe Yard in Kennington, where my studio, Mr. Smith’s Letterpress, is located, feels like stepping back in time. Surprisingly peaceful within such an urban setting, the yard was built as part of The Pullens Estate. Designed with artisans and small traders in mind, the area originally comprised 600 dwellings surrounding four working yards, which allowed people to both live and work on the premises. Fast-forward to today, and some 300 flats and 3 yards remain—home now to a thriving mix of creatives.
