NEWS - KithKin Presents at DesignersBlock, LDF



A few weeks ago now I took part in KithKin Presents which was part of DesignersBlock at London Design Festival.





It took place at Earls Court alongside 100% Design



Work from 18 recent graduates was featured. You can see all our work at KithKin Presents and more photos from the exhibition at KithKin Presents on Flickr

There was some really interesting work at Designer's Block and I really enjoyed taking part and meeting the other guys who also exhibited. It was also really exciting that our stand was right next door to the stand of some recent graduates from the RCA Design Interactions course under the title of 'Disruptive Thinking'. They had some really cool pieces on display.
