Without a shadow of a doubt the V&A is my favorite museum in london. It has everything you could ever want in a museum and it’s galleries are a constant source of inspiration. So on friday despite the boiling hot weather I headed down to see the new 1.1 – Architects build small spaces exhibition, an exhibit displaying 7 small buildings commissioned for the museum by various architects. Naturally once I’d seen all 7 I decided to have a look around the museum elsewhere. I have not visited the V&A since it opened its new ceramic and sculpture galleries so I had yet to see them in all their glory. I was completely in awe however, particularly with the ceramic galleries. I have never seen so much ceramic all in one place. Stacked from ceiling to floor in huge glass cabinets was every piece of ceramic you could possible dream of, in every size and color possible. Perhaps a little overwhelming at first but never the less sort of epic. Despite it being a bit hot what with the glass roofs and the mere fact that there was a heat-wave I still managed to spend a good hour or more in there looking though every piece in the collection, although I’m almost certain I missed out tons of amazing things which I will of course have to go back and see.
I took a fair few photos, of nothing in particulary just items I liked or things I found interesting color/pattern/texture wise a few are under the cut! More over at my flickr account.





These shots are beautiful! Especially the last one. Such a beautifl set, I am sure tea would taste even better.
I have to come to London one of these days, before it gets to cold.
I think I know why it’s your favourite
