James Uren black lamps – Mr Meow and The Vase. (One Year On)
The design students have graduated, they've had their shows and now the creme de la creme are taking their best work to New Designers in Islington, which is this year partnered with Arts Thread to host their online graduate portfolios.

I am particularly excited about the launch of The Design Trust's Business Club at New Designers on Thursday 28 June between 11am-5pm. All day there will be great talks from business support speakers across the UK, so don't miss your chance to get some expert advice: for a full listing take a peek here. If you are visiting during 27-30th June you will also be able to talk to experts on The Design Trust stand in the Graduate Hub. As a Design Trust partner I would be helping out myself as well, but my baby is just too little to get involved this year.
Dawn Gardner, Fireside Favourite (One Year On – loved her work last year so pleased to see her here again!)
Peta Levi MBE founded both The Design Trust and New Designers, so the two organisations have always had a very close relationship over the years, with particular involvement in the One Year On exhibition for last year’s graduates, which I always look forward to. For full timing and workshop information see the New Designers website – and to see the kind of stuff I discovered in 2011 check out a host of blogs here.
