We’re excited to be hosting our first Remodelista London Market this Saturday, November 15, organized in conjunction with The New Craftsmen and held at the collective's exhibition space in Mayfair. In anticipation, we’re devoting this week to our latest favorite UK design discoveries, including a new Bloomsbury-style farmhouse (for rent), an Oscar winner's classic English kitchen, plus work by several stars of our forthcoming London show.
N.B.: We'll also be hosting Remodelista Markets next month in SF and LA; here are the details.
