London Design Festival 2015: A Retrospective

At The Conran Shop, London Design Festival is always one of the biggest dates in our diary, and this year, we marked the occasion with two very special events.

We were thrilled to present #TheConranShopEdit, a handpicked curation of extraordinary furniture and lighting designs sourced from around the globe. The pieces by both established and up-and-coming designers, many of which are exclusive to The Conran Shop, went on display in an interactive in-store design trail and are still available to purchase online.

During the festival, we were also honoured to host a very special designer panel event in our Chelsea store. Led by Wallpaper* magazine’s Editor-at-large, Suzanne Trocmé, designers Jader Almeida, Magnus Long and Russell Pinch headed up a fascinating discussion in front of an audience of design devotees. Explaining their design influences, creative processes and how excellent design enhances their everyday lives, the designers’ anecdotes and opinions made for an enlightening and thoroughly entertaining evening.

Finally, teaming up with the fantastic Shini of Park & Cube, we were able to go behind-the-scenes with each of our guest designers for even more exclusive insights.
