The apples are not for eating!!! Even the best planned party can go wrong in the most unexpected ways.
Last night was party night at Clerkenwell Design Week where some of the UK and Europes leading furniture manufacturers and designers showcase new products, showrooms and how to party. At Poltrona Frau's event in their fabulous showroom on St. John Street apples had been artfully displayed on trays carefully placed on select pieces of furniture only for the guests to start eating them. Come on where is that British reserve gone?
The other highlight was the Farmiloe Building on St. John Street, where we met some old friends, in particular Hitch Mylius who were showcasing some new products. The Farmiloe Building is a really interesting Victorian warehouse that used to be the base for Farmiloe & Sons builders merchants established in 1823 (and still in existance today). Now used as an exhibition space and film location including Gotham City Police Station in Batman Begins.
After all the partying we retired to the Pizza East on Shoreditch High Street for some brilliant Pizza to soak up the alcohol. We loved the industrial interior which has been done really well. It's an occupational hazard being fascinated with interiors and so I of course took a quick pic on the phone.
