East London Design Show

This year ELDS had an international participation. Designers from Mexico to Moscow, exhibited their designs 2008's show. The designs were on lighting and home accessories, toys and child wear other than fashion and accessories.
The show included mostly young or amateurs but a British designer attracted my attention; Sasha Gabbé. She inspired by vegetables (pumpkins esp.) found in the Turkish shops near where she lives- North London. The pumpkins transformed into ceramic bowls and watermelons into lights...

I really liked the college students' designs.
Next show will be on 4-7 December 2009 at Shoreditch Town Hall. Click here to be a participant in 2009.
