GFSmith Show Space

A little paper inspo this week from the wonderful GFSmith Show Space in London. After Top Drawer (which has the fabulous paper awards sponsored by GFSmith) I popped over to their wonderful gallery space on Eastcastle Street with colleagues who work in publishing at the University of London.

Described as a 'paper palace' by Wallpaper magazine the Show Space did not disappoint. The exhibition room houses a history of the company and examples of the many creative projects - I especially liked the 'Mulberry Green' paper developed for the Mulberry fashion brand. The most striking piece is the incredible Collection Wall which displays each of the papers GFSmith has created and curated. This includes one of my faves, the super eco designer paper Extract made from coffee cups.

The Show Space is a most welcome break from screen time. It is lovely to have the opportunity to spend a morning appreciating such beautiful paper.
