Just checking you all have the details for ‘The Dock’ marked in your diaries for next week. After a popular first year in 2009 it is now a must do for London Design Festival. The Pennyfields chair will be on the Terrace as part of the Metropolitan Works ‘Metamorphosis’ exhibition. As well as the chair there will be lots to see and do including the launch of the Tom Dixon Shop. There is even a chance to jump on a Brompton bicycle and ride along the canal if you are that way inclined. Check out the image below for more details and I hope to see you there.

Award-winning ‘Pennyfields’ chair to launch at The Dock, London 22 September
Alex Whitney’s ‘Pennyfields’ chair is to launch at The Dock, Ladbroke Grove, hosted by Tom Dixon during the London Design Festival from the 20th-26th September 2010. Alex, who is the Design Manager at Pli Design Ltd, received a Metamorphisis award for his innovative chair design from Metropolitan Works, the creative industries centre created by London Metropolitan University. The judging panel, led by Metropolitan Works’ head Matthew Lewis, said the design was chosen because of its thoughtful combination of fast growing bamboo and refurbishable steel.
