MADE London

We love the stunning new venue for the UK's inaugural design and craft show at One Marylebone Road - a Sir John Soane designed church built in 1826 on it's own 'island' in the heart of London. 

The Private View  on Friday was buzzing and it is fantastic to see established makers alongside meeting new and innovative designers living in the UK.

It is great to see our very own Flux Member, Yuki Sasakura Assiter, exhibiting her amazing latest collections in MADE. 

Delicate ceramics by Suet Yi

The standard of work from new designers is really strong, and it is difficult to highlight only one designer from the wealth of talent - but I particularly liked the striking but delicate ceramics by Suet Yi.

Kitsch Lounge Riot


Divas, champagne, glamorous entrances and a good laugh



We loved the James Bond themed night at the marvellous Cafe de Paris in the West End. Vintage decor complete with velvet walls, sweeping staircase, chandeliers (and glitter balls...), starring emerging singing talent and live band belting out those fab Bond tunes to a packed venue.

What a great way to spend a Thursday evening. Just Friday to go and then it's the weekend!
