Tent London & 100% Design Designer Block

Did any of you attend either shows?
Tent, the digital area was by far the best and most interesting. The viewer could interact directly with the objects, which really made it a very popular area. People stayed their exploring all the possibilities. A big Interactive wall, when you touch it , a pattern or colour changed, or expanded or became smaller. This could fascinate someone for hours.
100%Design : What has happened to the Design world? And its endless ways of pushing boundaries?
Well it was to be found in the area : [re]Design: Doing it for the kids. Lots of toys made out of responsible, sustainable materials. It was playful but also showed you how simplicity can push ideas forward. And maybe to do it as well we all need to look at the world through kids eyes and problem solve through that. The display of the area was also more dynamic than the rest of 100%Design and Designer Block.
DesignerBlock: What has stayed in my mind was Puff&Flock with their inflatable creatures, shapes. or I would call it the inflatable architecture. It makes you smile, its well done and it s aesthetically nice and has a function!
