Love from London and Lomography - Editor's Choice, Life & Style

Tom Armstrong picks his top three coolest, quirkiest and downright awesomest events from the week ahead. 


All week
Lomo Wall @ Museum of London

FYI folks, a LomoWall is a wall covered in thousands of snap shot-sized analogue photographs. But that's not all. Up close you'll see lots of individual photos, but from afar the LomoWall looks like something totally different. Like a huge intricate mosaic made up of tiny little pictures. Clever no? I thought so too. It's at the Museum of London, who will also be hosting Lomography workshops from September.

All week
Love London Pop-Up @ Maiden, 188 Shoreditch High St

The excellent online shop Culture Label (on which you'll find a selection of gifts, toys and tidbits lovingly chosen by us at Spoonfed) are teaming up with East End boutique Maiden for a new London themed pop-up shop. ‘Love from, London’ offers a handpicked collection of the very best design tributes to London, all created by leading London-based artists and designers who are endlessly inspired by the city they are proud to call home.

All week
The Red Market @ The Red Gallery

The Red Gallery down by Old Street roundabout is opening up a huge market for the Olypmpics. The Red Market will be home to a summer house, sand pit, table tennis, hammocks and petanque (I've got no idea what that is but I love the word petanque) pitches.

A street art mural will gradually take shape over the summer before the space becomes a hotel complex. Pretty good representation of the whole of Shoreditch then.
