A Foggy Month In London Town

From countless classic cars to endless variations of the Victoria & Albert Museum, here’s the scoop on what you missed in London. We arrived woefully unprepared for the British weather and left experts on the Tube…just go ahead and anticipate delays on the Circle line.

Planes, trains, and automobiles—a day trip through the rolling hills of the English countryside brought us to Shuttleworth, home to the world’s oldest flying aircraft. We followed up with a train to Oxford to visit the Ashmolean and try some proper pub food. The mushy peas may have been a miss for me, but Greggs’ sausage rolls more than made up for it. We drove out to the Cotswolds to design the display hangar for Nick Mason’s private car collection while not-so-secretly fangirling (admittedly, I only know one Pink Floyd song). Fun fact, the #1 sign by his prized Ferrari marks it to be saved first in a fire.

We got some words of wisdom from Thomas Heatherwick, Anupama Kundoo, and Marina Tabassum, who gave us front row seats to her talk at her Serpentine Pavilion! Another highlight was seeing the impressive archive at Drawing Matter before ending our month with a picnic featuring Gavin, Helen, and the best strawberries I’ve ever had.
