ILM Visits Camden Collective

ILM Visits Camden Collective

Camden Collective is a great institution who support emerging designers, makers and businesses. Nothing pleases us more than coming across a good solid hub of creativity, where traders can bounce off each other whilst being able to find a firm establishment for their own wares or brands. No surprise, then, that we are currently LOVING the recently rejuvenated C/159 from Camden Collective, an indoor market space that gives creative businesses/individuals the chance to showcase their products or ideas, in the footfalltastic location of Camden High Street.   We were pretty delighted to see that two gorgeous ILM members, East End […]

The Hoxton loaf and scrumptious sausage rolls keep me coming back. This morning i continued my journey through Hoxton Street market and was delighted to see […]

Fleas Please: Angel Flea Market

Fleas Please: Angel Flea Market

What I love about flea markets is that they recognise all markets are different, and bring that all together under one roof (or sky, if it’s outside). They define the word eclectic and have the capacity to draw different audiences, communities, stallholders together. You can get your beautifully handmade designer-maker products, sift through wardrobes full of vintage and rummage through strange piles of who-knows-what.. and that’s exactly what I did at Angel Flea Market on Sunday 19th May. The sun was shining over the Candid Café courtyard and the atmosphere reflected it. The market, which had taken over Candid Arts […]
