Seven London-based designers agreed to let our camera into their studios prior to the unveiling of their Spring/Summer '04 collections to document the various people and source materials that inspired them. Use these fascinating 'photo-joiners', fashioned in a 360-degree cycle, to peruse the private workspaces photographed. Like Deckard's Esper Machine in Blade Runner, an in-built zoom function allows you to indulge your curiosity by scouring every last detail of each studio's contents. Enlarge fascinating scenarios and snippets, ranging from phone-numbers scribbled on Post-It notes and fabrics laid out on cutting-tables to the revealing book collections of some of London's leading designers.
In accompanying interviews, the designers explain their choice of studio space and consider its influence on the work produced there.
