About

ReMarket takes place on North Acton Square, a new public space at the centre of a rapidly changing neighbourhood. Surrounded by fast paced construction and major new infrastructure, the square is the gateway to Park Royal and WestTech London — a new innovation district pioneered by Imperial College London. The neighbourhood is also home to a new generation of artists and fashion students alongside more established craftspeople and makers of Park Royal.

Set against a backdrop of cranes, construction sites and newly built towers, ReMarket offers a necessary counterpoint. While start-ups nearby experiment with bio-engineered materials, graphene and advanced technologies, the market turns attention toward reuse, repair and resourcefulness.

In a place defined by the new, how do we value what already exists? How do we repair, adapt and rethink what we own?

The market focuses on recycled fashion, upcycled garments, visible mending, resale, vintage and creative remaking. It asks visitors to reconsider consumption while keeping the experience open, social and enjoyable.

UAL students and emerging designers are actively engaged in the market, contributing ideas, energy and experimentation. They explore how the “new” can be made from the old through reclaimed textiles and surplus materials. Alongside them, traders offer affordable finds, reworked pieces and sustainable home goods. Bargains sit comfortably beside innovation.

ReMarket is not only about buying and selling. Hands-on workshops run throughout the weekend: garment repair, upcycling techniques and practical sustainability skills that visitors can try for themselves.

ReMarket brings together residents, students, makers and local organisations in a shared moment within a rapidly changing neighbourhood. It creates space to reflect on growth and responsibility — while keeping the atmosphere open, practical and fun.

ReMarket celebrates thrifty intelligence, collective action and the idea that progress can mean reimagining what we already have.
