Established designers and rising stars take part in this showcase for contemporary craft in the UK, which in 2011 is held in a pavilion in Old Spitalfields Market. Disciplines span glass, ceramics, jewellery, metal, furniture and textiles, and a series of workshops, demonstrations and talks complete the festival. 'Liberty Selects' display windows comprise 30 pieces selected by Liberty's Buying Manager –Home and Gift, Michelle Alger, on the themes of 'graphic', 'texture', 'warm tones', 'form' and 'light and dark'. 'Lux Craft' is a new section of the fair showcasing products that are a combination of traditional craft skills and progressive manufacturing techniques. For full details visit www.originuk.org
