London Design Week

I thought the Bombay Sapphire Prize exhibition was the best of the four shows I went to. There was real quality here - interesting ideas and well-made pieces. I liked this mirror piece by Kazuo Taguchi; similar sort of thing to my lens river - using light and reflections. What I didn't like about it was that each mirrored curve was glued to the wall - so had to be built in situ.

100%East also had innovative design, though some of it tried too hard. Interesting(ish) light book by Mirko Kisser -- allegedly 'the contemporary citation of the ancient scriptures' ; each page being 'pure enlightenment'.Posted by Picasa
