Lucy Heale Explores Clerkenwell's Design Week

Clerkenwell Design Week launched this year, so I headed down on Tuesday night to take a look. The busy streets were full of people and interesting design showrooms, exhibitions and events; all opened up to the public to browse and collect samples. I enjoyed an evening of music in the Farmiloe Building in a great Dickensian old warehouse just off St John’s Street where the event is based. In fact a Mika-esque band performed above the crowd over the building's rafters there.

Inside, there was a pop-up design shop from the Barbican, displays and installations from an array of international interior design and architecture suppliers including my friend Lina Meier who was exhibiting a range of her new lighting.

What a great vibe it was- similar to the Milan Furniture Festival- and it’s on for just one more night tonight. I really recommend it!
