London-based graphic design student, Kathryn Lewis, has just completed a project around the notion of the chronobiology.

Gypsy music — in all it’s mutations — seems to be the new fad in London. Whether mixed with a bit of punk, jazz, classical or even breakbeat, it’s seeping into every nook and cranny in the city, and whatever the cocktail, the pace and eccentricity of the original sound means the sheer energy is inevitably retained.

UK-based designer Reiko Kaneko started creating little knick knacks and novelty items that piqued the attention of those looking for something a little different. A graduate of Central Saint Martin’s College, Kameko has combined the best of her Japanese-English heritage in a range of products that include an Egg Soldier cup, a six pack tee, and a burrow cushion.

A lover of all things geek ironic, Peter Jensen was a highlight of the Copenhagen Fashion Week. A designer with plenty of mileage under his belt this 24 piece men’s collection was one of his finest. Returning from the catwalks of London to his home country the show was unforgettable, each piece infused with his delightful sense of humor. Pants were tailored just above the ankle, shorts just above the knee, socks were high and Camper shoes many. It was an ode to geek, well received.
*We agree. Those Swiss lambskin military pieces in Paris this year were sensational. You should sign up for our free weekly newsletter*
