RADICAL*DESIGN*LONDON
Pink Essay x Axel Arigato x ROLSTUDIO x Time & Space
August 2023
RADICAL DESIGN LIVES IN LONDON — We partnered with London designer ROLSTUDIO and London concept store Time & Space to host a weekend of events celebrating the city and its own take on design. The weekend was powered by our friends at Axel Arigato and included an installation at their Soho store, an interdisciplinary panel talk with designers, curators, and architects, and a movie night screening of the 2018 Dieter Rams documentary.
The event was our first outside of North America — an amazing opportunity to connect with both our international audience and meet designers and designheads alike creating radical design culture in the London scene.

Wear Your Chair is a Pink Essay project at the intersection of furniture and streetwear. For our first WYC tshirt drop, we invited our community of “designheads” to send us their chair designs and received submissions from around the world, resulting in a piece of apparel that celebrates the diversity of our design community.
Our second edition celebrates our growing designhead community with 12 chairs from designers around the world — an homage to the transformational state of design today. Together, we’re designing the future and re-designing design culture.

"Educación Física III", curada por David Eardley y presentada por Pink Essay en FÁBRICA en Ciudad de México, es la tercera entrega de la serie de exposiciones de diseño experimental, Educación Física, que celebra la educación en diseño a través de diversas eventos, activaciones y contenido digital al tiempo que promueve espacios seguros para la exploración del diseño.
Esta edición enfatizó la diversidad del paisaje creativo de la Ciudad de México, presentando muebles de diseñadores, artistas y creadores interdisciplinarios. Sobre la base de nuestras exposiciones anteriores en Nueva York, los participantes tuvieron libertad creativa para interpretar su propia idea de "muebles", lo que resultó en una rica instantánea de la escena del diseño de la ciudad con piezas innovadoras que reflejan el talento y las perspectivas locales.
