From here, it’s a half hour walk to Design Centre, Chelsea Harbour, where you can visit the second edition of contemporary craft fair Artefact. You can also explore the new showroom of Cole & Son to see how the wallpaper company’s epic, enchanted garden panels were brought to life through exquisite hand-drawn and hand-painted artworks. Round off the trip with a visit to Tom Faulkner on Lots Road to view an exhibition of works by FIVE – a new silver and metal collective creating contemporary sculpture and objects for the home.
