If you have been reading this blog for a while, you will know that I admire the work of John Pawson. An exhibition of his work is on display at The Design Museum, London called John Pawson: Plain Space. It demonstrates his distinctive minimalist architecture style. Read the Guardian article about the exhibition here.

Here is a great editorial produced by The Guardian last year where they created four ficitional spaces inspired by four novelists using the season's home products. I'm an avid reader and thought that this was a great idea. The interiors are quite well suited to how the novelists and their writing style have been perceived.
