The Barbican in London is hosting a new pop up shop, called Design Den, until 23 December. The product offer is aimed firmly at Christmas shoppers, with a variety of wares on offer from stocking filler gifts to limited edition prints and furniture from up-and-coming designers.

Highlights include new designer Jill Shaddock, a recent MMU graduate whose ceramics we featured here earlier this year, who is selling her homewares alongside pieces from fellow graduate Richard Brendon, furniture designer James Uren, John Sprange, Nick Fraser, new design duo Fort Standard, All Lovely Stuff, and eco collective Grain Design - who are offering shoppers customised, recyclable shower curtains.
