EXHIBIT is a Design Gallery at the famous Golden Lane Estate in the Barbican area of London. The highly regarded 1950’s modernist architecture of the estate provides a living context for the work of the Gallery which was set up by two residents and designers from the estate in November 2005 to:
1. Provide a valuable venue, promotional platform and outlet for emerging designers and artists to show and sell their work at key early stages of career development
2. Curate a series of events, which will contextualise the social aspects of contemporary design and attract a public of informed and new visitors through exhibitions, publications, product development and marketing. As curators we select works appropriate and responsive to the social context so that the gallery is situated both as a social and as a business space - showing sensitivity both to site and to those who work with us.
