The London Design Festival starts in 3 days, so time to pop out your calendar, consult the online events’ planner, download the map and plan your assault. There will be product launches, demonstrations and pop-up shops galore.
Some top of my list are: The Designers / Makers pop-up shop at 135 Colombia Road with 40 designers submitting their responses to Flora + Fauna; the exhibition at Coexistence, 288 Upper Street in Islington, exploring Roger Batemen, of Sheffield Hallam University‘s work with flax and plant-based polymers; the launch of the Bloomsbury shop from Thornback & Peel selling mid-century furniture upholstered with their hand-printed fabrics; The Scarcity Project; The SustainRCA Show & Awards 2013 and a whole host of events at the V&A!
