October 2007: London Calling

If you have trouble reading this email, go to www.dwell.com/mailings/1325291.html

If you didn't make it to Dwell on Design or the London Design Festival this past month, have no worries. The Dwell blog is full of posts documenting the best details of both design happenings.

Direct from London, online editorial director Michael Cannell reported on the most exciting events at 100% Design. Worth all his jetlag and then some, his exclusive interviews with Doshi Levien (aka Nipa Doshi and Jonathan Levien), Tom Dixon, Ilse Crawford, and Sebastian Wrong capture some the most influential voices at this year's festival.

Also, look out for the

icon on the blog. The newly added feature allows you to listen in on some interesting commentary—direct from the source.
