Inspired by the history of design, Patrick Mele’s space in this year’s Sotheby’s Designer Showhouse will reveal a range of artistic influences. With a Marcel Breuer chair, an Ellsworth Kelly print, a tangerine carpet and graffiti-printed fabric draping the walls, Mele’s “Withdrawing Room” will be the perfect spot to escape.  Ahead of the 17 April auction, be sure to see the Showhouse for yourself when the exhibition opens on 9 April.
