Workplace Co-operative 115 by Lost At E Minor
Creatives are known for occupying inspiring workspaces, however what happens when it's time to adopt the coveted freelancing lifestyle? Working from home sometimes doesn't cut it, no matter how tricked out your work area is.
Since 2002 Workplace Co-operative 115 in London has housed 16 artists and designers, working both autonomously and cooperatively. The open and minimalist design is conducive to cooperating and sharing ideas. In fact, many scientific research labs have followed suit to promote more collaboration between scientists. An open, co-working space like 115 is the ideal solution for freelancers; a home away from home packed with other like-minded independents ready to collaborate and share the working love.

Doris Salcedo: Shibboleth
The Tate Modern always does an incredible job of reinventing their Great Turbine Hall with large, encompassing installations and with Doris Salcedo's "Shibboleth" they may have outdone themselves. Stretching imagination and the definition of sculpture and installation itself, Salcedo created a subterranean crack in the floor that stretches 584 feet across the entire length of the Hall. The upshot is a jagged abyss that...

Atelier Van Lieshout: Furniture
The London creative scene is keeping us on our toes. No sooner than we recovered from the excitements of the 2007 London Design Festival, it was time to get revved up for the London art fairs. We experienced Pulse London and the enormity of Frieze (more to come on that), but we started out at Design Art London, the organizers of which had clearly...
