G.F. Smith's permanent showroom, in Central London. Visits are by appointments only — But I would definitely recommend making the visit.

The Design Museum is a museum in Kensington, next to Holland Park, which covers product, industrial, graphic, fashion and architectural design. There is also a nice cafe on the 1st floor with beautiful views of the park.

An excellent bookshop by Brick Lane, the interior design is incredible and the selection unexpected. A good place to get lost in!
