The Best of the Rest at London Design Festival 2018

We featured some of our favorite exhibitions from this year’s London Design Festival here, here, and here, but today we’re taking you on a tour of some of our other 2018 picks. For the second year in a row, Swedish Ninja launched one of our favorite objects, this year in the form of small, mix-and-match glass sculptures. Studio Anansi capitalized on the lumpy and tubular trends with its chiseled sycamore table mirror. Skandium took up the mantle of Peter Pilotto, with its similarly color-blocked townhouse takeover. And the Ace Hotel continued its Ready Made Go collaboration with Modern Design Review; following last year’s requirement that all objects be made using sustainable materials, this year’s designers were tasked with collaborating with a local social enterprise to create their piece. Here’s hoping that that becomes the trend to follow us into 2019.
