10 Process-Driven Designers to Watch, According to Designer/Gallerist Max Radford

Having spent the last three years inviting some of the region's most promising design talents into his eponymous London gallery (names like Lewis Kemmenoe, EJR Barnes, Andu Masebo, Isobel Alonso), interior designer and curator Max Radford's group exhibition lineups are now considered a veritable who's who of the UK scene.

I Expected to Love My First 3Days of Design in Copenhagen. But I Could Never Have Anticipated What Would Make It So Great.

If you can believe it, this was my first year attending 3DaysofDesign in Copenhagen, and I went to the fair, now in its 10th year, armed with absurdly high expectations. I knew that just existing in Copenhagen in early June — using Lime bikes to cycle around, drinking natural wine, eating smørrebrød — would set a good baseline for fun.
