A few weeks ago, Clerkenwell Design Week took place. The website offers an interactive virtual map, but luckily, we could find some real ones, in the wild, wandering in the street during the event.

Reinder sent us a while ago this sushi roll; for a long time, I hesitated to publish it; is this real? Let’s have a conversation on our social. And for now let’s enjoy the sushis.
