Really excited about London Design week 18th - 25th September 2010. This year in a collaboration with the lovely Luke Kirwan from Blunt Agency we are taking part and exhibiting at the Saatchi & Saatchi Advertising Agency.
Here's the press release... read all about it ..





On the Road Photographic Exhibition

A collective of young design talent - 'On the Road' is an exhibition showcasing work by rising design stars of 2010.
The photographs will be on display as part of London Design Festival, 20th - 27th
September 2010 in the windows of the prolific Advertising agency Saatchi &
Saatchi, 80 Charlotte Street W1A 1AQ.
'On the road' is a photographic exhibition featuring six young furniture/product
designers. Based on the idea of an advertising campaign - these creatives are
literally ... on the road to success…

The design collective was established to create a platform for young design talent
and help to bridge the transition between graduation and launching successful
careers. The products were selected for the photographic exhibition because of
innovative use of materials and appealing aesthetics. Each of the designers has
their product featured within a set using geometric shaped mirrors which reflect
the surroundings and give a view of the road symbolic of their current journey.
The photographs are clean and graphic in style and display the pieces in a
complementary fashion.

Armed with an impressive list of awards and achievements including winner of
New Designers 2010 Tortie Hoare, these budding talents should be pinpointed
on the creative map.
Designers in the collective include: Adi Chambers, Design Kug(Sungkug Kim), Dominic Williams, Ellen Thomas, Jack Wilesmith, Matt Autton and Tortie Hoare.

Prop styling became very interesting when recently shooting with Rick Guest from East Photographic Agency for Esquire magazine. Asked to provide an array of unusual and intriguing items we set a scene for Tony Ward - model, actor, fashion designer painter and photographer. With the combination of Ricks professionalism and high class photography, the charisma of Tony and props which verged toward the darker side of the psyche .. the shots were stunning. Can't wait to put them on the website when they are out.
