‘A delectable design by Lily Arnold’ The Sunday Times ****
Lily Arnold’s courtyard set, magnificent to look at with its balconies and tree growing in the middle’ The Times ***
‘Lily Arnold’s striking courtyard set, with its delicate tree and its imposing doors waiting to be thrown open, reaffirms the sense of Niru being kept in a pretty prison.’ The Stage ****
‘It all fits seamlessly into the Indian setting beautifully realised by Lily Arnold's design for a courtyard house with its terracotta walls and a banana tree growing high into the sky’ WhatsOnStage ****
‘The sal tree at the centre of Lily Arnold’s stone-washed quad reaches to a dizzying height. Your eye is immediately drawn to it, to the way its slim grey trunk arcs up and up, leaves peering through a skylight. It’s a beautiful space, but chilly. More of a museum than a home.’ Exeunt ****
