Clerkenwell Design Week 2018 attracted over 30,000 visitors, who dutifully pounded the pavements of London’s key design district for three days of product launches, installations, and inspiring talks. OnOffice spent a collective 80 hours at the festival this year, and these are some of the most memorable products we came across.

Morfus
The British Collection exhibition in the Crypt on the Green was conceived to showcase the work of UK designers, and Morfus is the embodiment of classic British design: clever, functional, and stylish.
