The Future of Home Exhibition Showcases Scotland?s Design Culture
New materials, innovative processes + playful designs helped show off Scottish design at The Future of Home exhibit at Local Heroes.
Fifteen Scotland-based designers and design studios revealed 40 new objects at The Future of Home exhibit at Local Heroes during the London Design Festival. Curated by Dr. Stacey Hunter, director of Local Heroes, each object was imagined as one that could live in a home to reflect the fluidity between workspace and living space. From furniture and lighting to textiles and collectible craft, the show conveys the curiosity and discovery that can be found in Scotland’s design culture.

The Future of Home responds to Brompton Design District?s theme ?From here on?? and invites visitors to reignite optimism and youthful exuberance. From concrete furniture created through innovative processes to new materials invented to create more sustainable pieces, the result is a fresh, bold exhibition conveying the sense of curiosity and discovery found in Scotland?s design culture. Contemporary Scottish design is rooted in places and communities, as well as plenty of collaboration and co-designing both locally and internationally. It’s a generous approach with sharing ideas, know-how and attitude towards innovation. Chalk Plaster \ Photo: Reuben Pairs
The impetus behind this Local Heroes exhibition is my belief that it is time for Scotland to take its place in the world as a design nation...
