These are my tourist shots while on walks during Blog Tour 2011. This type of experience only happens once in a lifetime and I wanted to thank Veronika Miller and Tim Brogan of Modenus for such a design-centric adventure I will never forget. They also recently brought some incredible UK bloggers to New York for a second round of touring here. Such a fab bunch!

A walk along the Thames & Tent London

September 25, 2011

We could not have asked for a more beautiful morning to walk along the Thames to go and meet some fellow UK bloggers at the Poggenpohl showrooms. It was glorious.

After our meet-up, we all gathered at Tent London and it didn’t take me long to realise that in all the recent design shows that I have visited, this was by far my favourite. It had the perfect combination of experimental and commercial design without any corporate influence and I was inspired by virtually every single booth.


I was blown away by Tent London and should you ever find yourself in London during the London Design Festival, you must stop in.

Unfortunately, with such a busy BlogTour2011 schedule, I am unable to post each individual artist’s link so please visit the Tent London directory here.

A look into our first day at Blogtour 2011

September 24, 2011

After a pretty amazing and smooth flight, I headed into the heart of London to meet up with all of the incredible design bloggers at the Victoria & Albert museum. We had a guided tour of all the installations and room exhibitions while we marveled at not only being in London, but also being together as such an amazing group of peers who I all equally admire.

Regardless of the jet lag that began to set in, my eyes were wide open to such inspiring people and design.
