Original: Our loos? They’re inspired by Milan’s Villa Necchi! The reborn planks-and-plasterboard theatre trouncing its flashy neighbours

Those behind it point to unexpected influences for details down to the loos, citing Milan's Villa Necchi Campiglio as inspiration. The story celebrates how understated, budget-conscious design can triumph over grand architecture, making the venue a talking point among theatre and design fans.
Why now: A low-budget, humbly constructed theatre outperforming architecturally grander venues is an appealing underdog design story.
