Blog 60: Making my Sunday special with a dose of Giacometti.
A great day in Leicester Square. An amazing show at the National Portrait Gallery. I have to admit I am a Giacometti fan but this show provided me with an insight into his art, life and loves. Not having to queue to read a label or move round in crowds was pure pleasure. A great coffee in the café in the basement was then the perfect end.

What’s fun is finding the unexpected and in unusual places. I have only begun the trail of the London Design Festival but The Norfolk House Music Room at the V&A and The ‘Curiosity Cloud’ by an Austrian duo Mischer’ traxler.happened to be my first stop. There is lots about this experience that has made me investigate their work further. The creation of the different glass bulbs, the amazing fluttering of the mechanical butterflies inside, a sound and visual extravaganza! Feeling good and finding out more.

Back to beautiful things.
