Photographer Ben Stockley documents rising talent Philippe Malouin's curated recommendations from the 10th London Design Festival. Launching in 2003, the festival promotes the forefront of contemporary design with exhibits across the capital. This year sees an immersive sound installation by Arup taking over Trafalgar Square and 100 design brands showcased at the old Post Office sorting house on New Oxford Street. Having graduated from the Design Academy, Eindhoven, and the École National Supérieure de Création Industrielle, Paris, Malouin was recently named Winner of the 2012 W Hotels Designer of the Future Award and received a Wallpaper* Design Award for best use of material. His newest work 'blur', seen at the London Design Museum, is a spellbinding Catherine wheel of multifaceted Swarovski crystal beads that rotate within the confines of digitally motorized pictures. These temporal LED ‘light paintings’ exploring memory and motion appear alongside works by Ron Arad, Yves Behar and Maarten Baas in the exhibition Digital Crystal. Here, Malouin gives props to his festival favorites.

Prosthesis and Innesti at Gallery Fumi
Construction workers on architect Marcio Kogan’s building sites anonymously created found-object structures, which were then curated and modified by his illustrious Brazilian architecture studio MK27: “The synopsis for the show sounds amazing. Spanning 4 years, debris and construction waste products were collected, catalogued and used to create new design pieces. A bit of a flashback to the Arte Povera movement with design in mind.”
