19.04.18 / PREZZO /
Over the last few months we’ve been working with the food and beverage team at Prezzo.
David had the opportunity to test out the new black pizza – The Etna, which has a garlic chilli and tomato base, topped with calabrese sausage, pepperoni, roquito chilli pearls, rocket and mozzarella. There is also a vegetarian version – The Monte Bianco. And the verdict for The Etna – “buonissimo!”

02.10.17 / ADAM GROOMING ATELIER / Eastcheap, London
Work in progress….We’ve been working with the exciting start up ADAM Grooming Atelier for the last few weeks by project managing their second store in Eastcheap, London. Tested by David himself at Canary Wharf, where you’ll find the first Atelier,
the service is second to none; they describe themselves as offering a timeless barbering experience with expert barbers in a great ambience.
The geometric inspired atelier environment is distinctive and crafted with its oak screened barber booths and hexagonal ceiling detail, also seen in the branding. With a complementary Turkish coffee whilst you are left to the artful hands of the barbers, shows the attention to detail that makes this experience a memorable one. We are looking forward to this one opening.

09.12.16 / EXPLORING KING’S CROSS / The Skip Garden & Kitchen / King’s Cross, London
After a meeting, this morning was spent walking around and seeing the exciting developments at King’s Cross. Found, hidden within the tall and geometric structures of office blocks, housing and retail units is the Skip Garden & Kitchen. It was so strange to find such a treasure of a place, so rustic, organic and unstructured – a little oasis within the confines of the towering and noisy building works. What a brilliant idea.

This is genius, although when I think of some of my kids drawings I do wonder how lovable they would turn out to be! Crayola has launched Crayola Imaginables which turns your child’s drawings into ‘lovable stuffed toys and Plushies’.
All you need to do is upload a picture of the drawing to their website. Brilliant really.

This week I caught the last day of Top Drawer at Olympia. Here are some of my top picks:
Marta Bordes / Elastic lights /
Ceramic lights made with geometric components linked by bright elastic cords. I love the contrast between the neons and neutrals; the vibrancy and playfulness of the combined materials adds real character. Marta-bordes.com
Jam Jar lights / bespoke lighting
A clever way to bring a unique and personalised feel to lighting design. Design your own from choosing everything from the ceiling rose, to the cord, pedant and bulb type. jamjarlights.com
