  The Recycled House is a project which we have wanted to do for some time, having a long term interest in green issues. We welcome contacts from anyone else who is undertaking an eco-development, or is interested in more information about what we are doing.   email
 

Helen is an artist, working mainly in film, video, photography and installation. She has a BA Hons in Fine Art from Goldsmiths College, and an MA in Gender, Society and Culture from Birkbeck College, University of London.

 
  After a first career in information technology John set up Video Art Bankside in partnership with Helen, a video production company working for artists, art galleries, charities, schools and other not-for-profit organisations from 1997 to 2007. He now works with Helen on design and building projects as Occupied Space.  
  John and Helen run Occupied Space, an interior design and projects partnership which has carried out a variety of commissions ranging from kitchens and bathrooms, through garden design to shell apartment fit-out (pictured right). The Recycled House is our first eco-project and we hope it will provide experience and a template for similar future projects.
