The series, starting with Sir Terence Conran, famed for transforming the look of the British home will be showcasing his most loved work from his retrospective at London’s Design Museum. The following week, artist Kate MccGwire will present a cabinet of curiosities, objects, which she has collected over the years that continue to inspire her work. Closing the week is digital artist and founder of ‘Universal Everything’ Matt Pyke who will exhibit digital wonders like ultraviolet trees grown out of mathematical formulas and 3D-printed figurines borne from code.

The unique and insightful installations will be presented next to a state-of-the-art series of films, created by Crane.tv, showcasing intimate profiles of the chosen artists to give the viewer an insight into the process and inspirations behind their celebrated careers.
