A Celebration Of British Design, Craftsmanship, Engineering & Innovation

February 27th 2014 sees the start of a fascinating interactive exhibition in the LINLEY flagship store on Pimlico Road, curated by David Linley and Scott Simpson. The idea for the exhibition grew from David’s desire to encourage an appreciation of ‘making’, not only in terms of traditional craftsmen but also the modern day innovators and engineers who are artists and craftsmen in their own right. The carefully selected brands forming the exhibition are all renowned for the design and creation of fine objects and have been brought together under one roof in a celebration of British craftsmanship, design, engineering and innovation.

The exhibition brings together one company with a three hundred year history with another with less than two years’, demonstrating that craftsmanship and the pursuit of perfection are as alive today as they ever were. BVS Handbags, Hardy Fishing and Globe Trotter luggage hold their own alongside a Rolls Royce Aerospace engine and a JCB digger; a clear indication that from the initial concept to the finished object, from hand-making to high-tech machinery, uniqueness is inherent to each and every item in the exhibition.
