Some of the finest villas in Barbados were designed by Oliver Messel who was originally a portrait painter, later a leading theatre, film and set designer and who, at the age of 55, moved from England to Barbados and started his new career as an architect and interior designer. Messel’s designs were unique and whilst never formally trained as an architect, he had an incredible eye for detail and for the theatrical. Messel’s homes tend to be romantic and grand and wonderfully homely places to stay during your holiday in Barbados.
