45 Millbank, Chelsea College of Art and Design
16 John Islip Street, London SW1

Number 45 Millbank is a Grade Two listed venue located just steps from Tate Britain.The complex of imposing neo-Baroque buildings is architecturally acclaimed. Since 2004 it's been home to the world-famous Chelsea College of Art and Design. Built between 1904 and 1907 as the Royal Army Medical Corps Headquarters Mess and College, top military dined in the rooms you now hire.

The Red Room has intricate ceiling plasterwork and cornices featuring antiqued gold and trompe l'oeuil effects, all gently washed with subtle lighting. Daylight floods through windows on two sides, with views looking south to the River Thames.

The exciting interiors scheme also introduces specially created, vibrant carpeting, and effectively contrasts colour and texture, classic with modern. This design makes the Red Room an effective stand alone space, or the perfect complement to the Banqueting Hall.

Within the Banqueting Hall, guests are surrounded by a century of history, now mixed with the spirit of innovation that is Chelsea College of Art and Design.

The elaborate ceiling is decorated with late 17th Century style plasterwork in subtle two-tone paints. Below it, tall casement windows flood light on to fireplaces festooned with carved swags of fruits and cherubs. The lofty gallery rises above rich wood panelling and a specially commissioned 'wave' carpet, to create a room of elegant Edwardian grandeur mixed with contemporary chic.
