hi panda

hi panda by jiji (I got the evil looking one :) )

we had a gander at the China Design Now exhibition at the V&A over the weekend which proved to be a worth while visit, there’s some interesting work on show. although i have to say i wasn’t really as wowed as i thought i would be i’d still recommend a visit, it could be me being over critical or just a bit ignorant of the chinese design scene. (having said that the last issue of computer arts featured some of what i thought was great chinese work). the exhibition consists of three rooms one graphic design, one fashion and one architecture, personally i was least engaged by the fashion room not really my thing.

when all is said and done it’s a good little exhibition and the building itself is pretty cool too. if you get chance to i would have a coffee in the Madejski garden and sit by the fountain. whatever you do don’t loose your purse on the way home and end up stranded in Clapham!!
