Paul………………

May 31, 2013 by thecurioinmargate

Who are you? The Breuer out of Breuer & Dawson, 7 King St. Ladies and gents outfitters. Why Margate? Miles of smiles. How would you describe your style? Effortless. If you were an animal, what would you be? Rattlesnake. Best and worst thing about your move to Margate? The best-the morning walk along the front from Albert terrace to king street, to open the shop. The worst-hasn’t happened yet. Best and Worst thing about your renovation experience? Best – realising that all the random objects I’ve […]

Ann Carrington……………

May 3, 2013 by thecurioinmargate

Who are you?  I’m an artist working from a studio in Margate. Why Margate?  The combination of urban and seaside appeals to me. I like the fact that Margate is a little rough around the edges, that it hasn’t been done up to within an inch of its life ….you feel there is an adventure to be had. How do you define style?  As Gore Vidal famously said “Style is knowing who you are, what you want to say, and […]
