London Design Festival 2012: Designers in Residence at designjunction
One of the highlights of designjunction was the Designers in Residence stand. Designers in Residence is a Northumbria University scheme for graduates that provides workspace, equipment and mentoring to selected alumni of the BA(hons) 3D Design course there. Graduates use the program to develop their professional practice before fully going it alone - and get the opportunity to exhibit at places like designjunction.

London Design Festival 2012: designjunction
designjunction was one of the most exciting shows of London Design Festival. The venue alone was enough to look forward to. Built in the 1960s by the Ministry of Works as a Royal Mail Sorting Office, it became largest in the UK in the 90s before closing down. Since then it has been used for everything from an illegal rave in October 2010, to an Alexander McQueen fashion show earlier this year. The design had a lot to live up to. Luckily it didn't disappoint.
