They will all be found under the Christmas trees of many discerning design-lovers this year, who have discovered them in an exciting pop-up shop in Covent Garden selling limited edition works of art and design.
Open for just one month, The Temporium, has been showcasing unusual collections from twenty of the UK’s most exciting and innovative designers, including Studio Glithero, giving London’s hard-to-please Christmas shoppers the chance to buy a wide range of beautiful and stylish items.
Tableware, furniture, lighting and homeware have been nestled alongside Paperself’s hand-made paper eyelashes, Dominic Wilcox’s special edition of his iconic War Bowl, Diego Ramos‘s Mr Chocolate moustaches and the paper planes from Studio Glithero and Baddeley Brothers.
100% art
Director Charles Pertwee commented: “It’s a wonderful tribute to the proud heritage of this firm, that some of the skilled men and women featured in this film are, in a way, back on the street where they learned their craft. For me, visiting the street where my predecessors built up the business, adds another level of meaning to the artwork and I’m proud that our specialist printing capabilities are now being admired by designers across the capital.
Gallery Director Valerio Capo added: “At Gallery FUMI we specialise in limited edition or one-off design pieces, from designers who push materials and techniques to their limits. The paper planes collaboration by Studio Glithero and Baddeley Brothers is a beautiful example of this, and I’m delighted that they have extended their original project for this exhibition, assembling extraordinary three-dimensional pieces of wall art.
As masters of their craft, the printers at Baddeley Brothers have been able to turn a traditional technique into contemporary art.
