Clerkenwell Design Week 2015


Every year Clerkenwell is transformed into a humming hive of design. I was invited for a tour of the major sites and enjoyed seeing some of the clever furniture, interesting fabrics and bold installations. I could waffle on for ages about angles and post-modernism (sigh) for a while, or I could just show you some pretty pictures. Here you go:



I loved this cool installation, 'Glaze' by Cousins & Cousins in partnership with Gx glass. It was inspired by Venetian Murano glass




So pretty and colourful!


There were several sites around Clerkenwell that you could go and see - bit like a design-y treasure hunt of joy



Cool



Monotype put on an outdoor exhibition which "celebrated the way type design permeates and enhances our world." It looked really interesting... 


...And you can use the first letter of your name as your profile pic - yay!


This was where that was



Love this bear by Jimbobart




Drippy


Triangles - nice




Want if I ever own a house


Ditto



Loves me a bit of macrame



Wish I was allowed more cushions in my house - they get in the way, apparently 


I'm not allowed to draw on the walls either




Cute


Sponsored by Renault so there were cars there


This light was amazing


If you want your house to look like a circus


Or if you want your house to look like a garden from the inside



so colourful! Nice one Johnson's tiles


Things like this surrounded Clerkenwell, kind of like a Roman city


Such gorgeous folders and press info


Got such a thing about palms at the moment


Talking about perspex brains, probably
