SHOWstudio

Thursday, 27 August 2009



I walked past the SHOWstudio ship on Bruton street the other day, and it's looking very interesting. The shop sells bespoke objects from shoots and catwalk shows, and photographic prints.


I like this flag created by John Galliano,


this greenhouse by Simon Costin which was created for the Albion cosmetics campaign and photographed by Tim Walker,


and these giant cherries also by Simon Costin, which are made of painted fibreglass and resin. The shop is on 1-9 Bruton Place, London W1 or online at

But beware - it's certainly not cheap!

Tim Walker photographs

Monday, 21 July 2008


At the weekend I went to see the Tim Walker exhibition at the Design Museum, London and absolutely loved it. It is beautiful and truly inspiring. All the photographs are stunning and are a lovely mix of glamorous fashion, fairytale wonder and adventure.


I especially like the hanging dress tree photo and the way that his photographs bring outside indoors, such as showing camping in tents in an elegant stately home sitting room, and inside outdoors, as in the wonderful twilight picture where a family sits in a back garden watching Brief Encounter projected onto their country house wall.





The exhibition also has lots of inspiration display boxes which hold Tim Walker's sketchbooks and cuttings. It is on at the Design Museum until the 28th September see www.designmuseum.org
