London / Cemetery

I grew up in the countryside, and if you're ever in need some instant escape from the city, this place is like a time warp. It's a huge space full of over grown mausoleums and graves, feels like a movie set. They also do tours.

London / Restaurant

Quick, easy, cheap thai food. It's fairly new to me, but easily makes this list.

London / Gallery

Maybe an obvious choice, but the Barbican is always good. My favourite space in there is the curve gallery, last time I went was for Cory Arcangel's 'Beat the Champ'. I love the architecture, although not many people do. I think it was voted 'London's ugliest building' in 2003.

London / Bar

Frank's bar opens on the roof of a multi-storey carpark in Peckham every summer. It's great to go for a drink and get this phenomenal view of London. I love the design of the bar, which is different each year, and the exhibitions are always interesting.

London / Designer

I was born and brought up a country boy in Sussex, but Brixton is now very much my home. I adore London. I studied Fine Art and I’m currently at Burberry working as a display designer.

London / Designer

French designer based in London, I studied at UAL Chelsea College of Art and recently launched a piece of functional sculpture called RAILS, now on sale at the Design Museum shop and eshop.

London / Designer

I am a young product designer based between London and the village of Dedham in the rural East of England. My portfolio of work is as diverse as my professional experience. From the health sector to furniture, I aim to create products that engage with users on a human level, achieving a visual warmth that is often missing from modern design.
