Week beginning September 19th - London Design Festival

This week sees the London Design Festival roll into town and Kaffeine is playing a small part, in that we are one of the pit stops on the Fitzrovia Design Trail.

Next Wednesday is the biggest day with many of the leading furniture design showrooms in the area opening for events throughout the day and the evening.

One of the most exciting parts of this process has been the planning stage, where a number of local businesses led by Minotti Furniture and Together Brand Design have held meetings to organise everyone to get together with a map, postcards and a prize draw based on the concept of Fitzrovia Now.

Maps are available in store now, and the concept is really about discovering Fitzrovia for the hidden gem of fashion, galleries, dining and showrooms that it is.

On Wednesday, specially designed keys will be available in selected stores including Kaffeine and you can go into those stores, collect a stamp and once you have filled in your key with stamps, you can go into a prize draw for some really cool prizes donated by some of our local companies.

And so here's to the power of a group of independent stores, getting together to promote their special part of London. And to great design.
