The London Design Festival is over but we’ve still got plenty of great content from the event to come. See all our stories so far including our first Dezeen and MINI World Tour movie and read on for our pick festival highlights.
We started off the London leg of our Dezeen and MINI World Tour by talking to architect Alex de Rijke of dRMM about his practice’s Escher-inspired installation of staircases outside Tate Modern.
Other spectacular commissions for the festival included an installation of 5000 paper windmills and a chandelier by Canadian lighting brand Bocci at the Victoria and Albert museum.
The museum was also the setting for the Global Design Forum, where Peter Saville was revealed as the winner of this year’s London Design Medal for his contribution to design and London. In the same interview, he declared that “Manchester is now the capital of the UK” and announced that he’s creating a logo for Kanye West.
Dezeen also broke the news that the Victoria and Albert museum’s latest acquisition includes two of the world’s first 3D-printed guns.
New design brands launched during the festival include Wrong for Hay, the latest venture from designer Sebastian Wrong and Danish brand Hay, and Joined + Jointed at designjunction in the city centre.
Other things we liked at designjunction included the latest collection of furniture and homeware from Another Country and wicker lighting by Swedish studio Claesson Koivisto Rune. Dezeen also created the map for the West End Design District surrounding designjunction.
Elsewhere in the city our picks were OKAYstudio & Friends in the east, where Hunting & Narud showed a smoked-glass mirror with a brass counterweight, and 1882 in the west where Philippe Malouin displayed crockery that’s made with an analogue 3D printer.

Talk about schadenfreude. Seemingly every car blog in the world, and every local paper in NYC, has picked up the story of a Lamborghini crash last weekend in Brooklyn. The notable part of the crash: The $400,000 Aventador hits a tree and splits in half.
Luckily there were no fatalities in the crash, which occurred Saturday in the Mill Basin neighborhood of Brooklyn. But the part that we can’t get over is that every single news organization is reporting, with no attribution whatsoever, that the Lamborghini is specifically designed to split in half in the event of a crash. Uh…what?

Its not earth-shattering innovation but a simple tweak that makes the Alert Staples a very clever product. The last endpins of the staples are painted red, just to let you know that the end is near and replenishment of pins is required. When you are on a stapling spree, this kinda helpful hint helps! Ask your office staff!
Designers: Wei-Ling Hsu, Yu-Ren Lai & Cyuan-Yi You
