The Grand Daddy - Roof Trailer Park
Towards the end of 2008, WITW / Design Studio did the creative direction for the trailer park on the roof of the new Grand Daddy hotel on Long Str.
As the first of its kind in the world,7 vintage Airstream trailers were hoisted onto the roof of a Long Str. landmark The Grand Daddy Hotel (formerly The Metropole), we then invited local artists and designers to design and decorate the interior of one of these trailers.
The concepts ranged from ‘The ballad of John and Yoko’ ( a trailer inspired by the famous ‘bed-in’ staged by John Lennon and Yoko Ono) to ‘For the Love of Lace’.
The artists involved were:
Tamsin Relly
Chloe Townsend
Cara Rosa
Carla Soudien
Sarah Pratt
Tracy Lynch
Mark & Joe Stead
Brigitte Dewberry
Susan Woodley
and Liam Mooney
The park is open for drinks most afternoons, so if you’re in the area go check it out!
