Jeeves pedigree invested Dolphin Square with a subtle, elegant, Art Deco charm, whilst consulting engineer Oscar Faber brought to the project a worldwide reputation for excellence and innovation. The landscape gardens were an early priority, designed as they were by Richard Suddell, who was at the time President of the Insitute of Landscape Architects. Attention to details has always been a priority at Dolphin Square.

Sir Nicholas Pevsner, architect critic and writer, noted that Dolphin Square was ‘the largest self-contained block of flats in Europe’ and as late as 1992, no other building in Europehad a greater number of self-contained units under one contious roof. The revered American writer Temple Fielding saw the square as ‘mini city’ and to a certain extent this is still true today. However, the size of the building, the number of tenants, the sheer scope of the amenities and the central location all belie the fact that Dolphin Square is indeed and oasis of calm in the city.

Many famous people have stayed at Dolphin Square from politicians to spies and foreign dignitaries, glamour girls and stars of stage and screen.
