London Design Festival coincided with the autumn equinox. To celebrate, the
gates of Tom Dixon’s headquarters, The Dock were open for a
generous and joyful festival of the homemade, where he welcomed old and new
friends, collaborators, colleagues to share some of his latest ideas in local
and global design, craftsmanship, drink and music.

all it has to offer.”
Tom’s words!...
Tom Dixon X Goldfinger Factory
Trellick
Tom Dixon got behind the Goldfinger Factory
by designing an exclusive product line, called Trellick, named after the
building in which the Goldfinger Factory is situated. Coalescing traditional
carpentry with cutting-edge fabrication techniques, the range has a positive
social impact, an exceptional story; each piece is made by artisans and
trainees from the local community. What’s more, all of the off-cuts have been
used in innovative ways to create more products such as picture frames thereby
minimizing their contribution to the problem of waste.
