My newest 'bright find'


See the cute little orange desk lamp above, as featured on the homepage of furniture boutique Lulu Bright.... this has become my newest 'bright find' to use the term so perfectly coined by Lulu Bright for the selection of carefully chosen but affordable vintage pieces sourced from a variety of locations. Although the majority of  pieces sold by this outfit are for those with much deeper pockets than me, the Bright Finds section offers something that is missing from the majority of furniture design outfits I have visited and most definitely just browsed longingly!


Unfortunately their 'pøp üp butik' closes at the end of today but all products will still be available via their online store: www.lulubright.co.uk


Check out the quirky, multi-coloured sewing storage boxes which are my personal favourite.


With London Design Week officially beginning tomorrow, pop-up shops are literally springing up in unexpected locations all over London offering both an insight into up-coming, independent design, and also re-juvinating empty commercial space. As Lulu Bright closes it will be replaced by Curiosity, a pop up shop which showcases the work of 16 established and upcoming designers who collectively seek to manufacturer all their work in Britain. Check out the recycled scarves by Tamasyn Gambell(www.tamasyngambell.com), and the beautiful 'dressed' chairs by Korean designer, Soojin Kang (www.soojinkang.net)
