Clerkenwell Design Week 2016

By Adrien Communier

London-area Clerkenwell is home to more than 300 architects and designers and can easily brands itself as one of the most productive design area in the world. To celebrate this creativity, Clerkenwell Design Week has been running for the past seven years and this year yet again, is full of exhibitions, work presentations and workshops. We’ve picked out the four unmissable things for this year’s CDW:
