London fashion Week
A number of my clients were featured in the press during London Fashion Week !
On Fisher Garcia Herald Tribune Feb 14th said "Elena Garcia wanted to make the most glamorous of garments to show that sustainable clothing can have couture quality. Chosen by Estethica as one of the promising new contributors in the field, Garcia and her partner take the view that people will be prepared to pay a high price not because something is organic nor because it helps women who might otherwise struggle to find work - but because it is beautiful." for more see http://www.iht.com/articles/2008/02/14/style/rgreen.php
On tuesday 5th BBC news wrote "The studio where Nin Castle and Phoebe Emerson run their fashion firm is very small, but the change they are aiming for is big - and they are doing it in technicolour." for more info please go to http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/business/6248796.stm

Great success for one of my lighting clients
rising star of lighting design reveals latest commission on Euston Road .....
14 January 2008
One of the UK's most prolific designers, Paul Cocksedge, has been commissioned by the Wellcome Trust to produce a major display illuminating Euston Road in central London.
A short stroll from the recently launched St Pancras International station sits an impressive nine-storey glass building, which houses the UK's largest charity, the Wellcome Trust. The front windows of the building are seen by over 1.8 million passers by each year, providing the perfect opportunity to engage the public with the work of this medical charity.
With this in mind, Paul Cocksedge has created a dramatic window display of arms stretching across the full length of the building. Using a unique electronic material that allows light to pass through it, but with a flick of a switch can stop the light, the magic skin covering the arms disappears to reveal veins and arteries inside the arms, which have been translated into glass neon tubes.
One of the hands is intentionally pointing to the building next door, drawing attention to the recently launched Wellcome Collection, a public venue that explores the relationship between medicine, life, art and history. James Peto, Senior Curator at Wellcome Collection, commented: "The challenge was to create a window design that in the simplest of terms gets across a message about the Wellcome Trust."

Paul Cocksedge explains: "I am keen to engage with those passers-by who are not familiar with the work of the Trust, and also to show the relationship between two buildings that are architecturally distinct from one another. The reference to the human body is a symbol of medical research, all be it an obvious one. I am keen to show how making the skin become invisible reveals the workings of the arms, similar to an X-ray. The intention is that people walking along busy Euston Road will, for a moment in time, consider their own bodies and walk away with a clear association between imagery and the Wellcome Trust."
Paul Cocksedge (29) was born in London and studied industrial design at Sheffield Hallam University before attending the Royal College of Art in London. He has exhibited his work at the Design Museum and the Victoria & Albert Museum. He was nominated for the Design Museum's Designer of the Year Prize in 2004.
