The question was…
‘The Design Museum’s Super Contemporary exhibition focuses on London design.
If you could design one thing to benefit the capital what would it be?’
And this is what Ab thinks! :
“London needs a floating desert island to drift down the River Thames, stopping at random, unexpected locations.
An oasis for escape. A space without time or location, drifting freely and liberating people from the city.
A liberated, floating, desert island would be a great way discover the Thames which is a magical element of London.
The island, free of everything except desert, should be a magical place for contemplation and escape, taking you to and showing you places you have never seen.
We often take London for granted and need a mechanism for discovery.”
