Wednesday June 29 marked the launch of New Designers at the Business Design Centre in Islington, where a number of companies and organisations sponsored prestigious design graduate awards and associate prizes.
The show takes place in two parts, from 29 June – 2 July and from 6 July – 9 July, presenting applied arts, fashion, jewellery, glass, ceramics, architecture and interiors, graphics and interactive design, furniture and product innovation. A total of 26 awards will have been presented by the time the exhibition closes.
Gifts and Greetings Review went talent spotting at the event yesterday, discovering some wonderful new gems set to sparkle in the world of product design and an exceptional all round showcase from Leeds College of Art & Design.
Beautiful bird designs were much in evidence, including these exquisite designs from (left) Louise Tiler and Victoria MacArthur (right). More updates to come.
