The warehouse in Stockwell has an extensive range of papers and boards, the perfect place to source the ideal surface for drawing or printing. Knowledgeable and helpful staff make John Purcell’s the best place to stock up on art papers in London.

Los Angeles / School

If you want to witness what architecture is about, visit SCI-Arc. This is where I went to school ,and I can tell you there is not one day that you will not be surprise what goes on inside this school. From open to the public lectures every wednesday to galleries and installation, and not to mention the student work.

Munich / Park

Bang in the center of the city, the quite bucolic English garden is also an internationally renown spot for surfers. The maybe four meter large river that crosses it creates just under a bridge, one single and endless wave. What means that all year long, even when it’s snowing, you can see guys in wetsuit queuing to ride it. It’s so surreal.

Paris / Restaurant

Great place for coffee in the morning, delicious homy lunch, or a drink in the evening. It's a cosy neighborhood joint, with a fun crowd and vintage furnitures

London / Music Venue

Audiophile paradise. Boasting one of the coolest looking and beautifully crafted sound-systems I've ever seen. More listening bar than club, it has a low key vibe with a diverse roaster of talented DJ's spinning an eclectic mix of tunes and full albums.

London / Other

G.F. Smith's permanent showroom, in Central London. Visits are by appointments only — But I would definitely recommend making the visit. All of their stocks are beautifully archived, along with example publications, and a rotating series of paper installations in both the window & basement, courtesy of Made Thought.

London / Architecture

Favourite walk at night, especially in the summer. Quite dramatic, very romantic.

London is so vast I am forever coming across new hidden gems. Walking around the streets and getting lost is the best way to find London's best kept secrets.

Margate / Attraction

The Shell Grotto is basically a subterranean passageway covered in mosaics created with seashells, 4.6 million shells apparently. Its quite incredible, I love it and its well worth a visit.

Basel / Museum

Contemporary Art Museum in Basel, wide rooms, sometime with red carpeting during Dora Budor exhibition.

New York / Zoo

For Adults and Kids a good reason to get the "out of the city feeling" although you are still in the middle of it! Free entrance with NYC ID!
