NOVEMBER 2023 - Atelier100 will launch a temporary Covent Garden space showcasing the latest launches from its collaborators that will be available to purchase. Highlights will include the Drop02 collection from Atelier100's Cohort 2023, new ceramics from design studio Mitre & Mondays, as well as an eclectic offering of limited edition giftable pieces spanning fashion, beauty and home, all made by independent London creatives and brands.
The Winter Holiday Shop gives customers the chance to shop unique, contemporary gifts such as quirky handmade ceramics, refillable solid perfume, prophetic vegan soaps and recycled silver jewellery. Following a successful launch at London Design Festival, Drop02 will also be on sale for immediate purchase with limited pieces available. Highlights include decadent clothing made from deadstock and vintage fabrics, hand-carved serving spoons and recycled glass lamps.
For the adventurous shopper, Atelier100 has compiled a ‘mystery gift’ for £20, as well as curated bundles for the ideal bumper gift and for those short on time. These have been thoughtfully compiled into a series of categories for Foodies, the Design Curious, the Londoner, the Entrepreneur and the Homebody. Each features its own distinctive curios, from locally crafted decorative objects to small batch hot honey produced in London.
The space is designed and manufactured by long-term collaborator Mitre & Mondays, repurposing the materials used for Atelier100’s recent Dalston pop-up at London Design Festival. For the latter, the Mitre & Mondays studio was inspired by the awnings and structures of traditional London market stalls that have lined the city’s streets for centuries. The structures created echo these shapes in a nod towards the city’s history of making and selling, and Atelier 100’s own mission to support community-driven, local design.
Closer look at the Winter Holiday Shop:

A think tank and a store all rolled into one, Atelier100 aims to discover and support emerging, London-based creatives by helping them bring their products to life, and inspiring local communities to shop close to home. Now in its second year, it is driven by an exciting collective of creatives, makers and design industry experts. Atelier100 was established to bring the focus back towards the merits of local design and local production, giving agency to ideas that might otherwise have remained in limbo.

Every product for sale has been designed in and around London, and is available to buy at our Hammersmith store.
