British Council: Love & Money

November 2006

In spite of wider historical connotations in English, 'design' increasingly means the alliance of visual creativity and commerce. This alliance is more frequently perceived as an irreconcilable tension. But Love & Money, organised jointly by the British Council and UK Trade & Investment, features twenty projects and designers that balance business ambition and commercial success with the invention and experimentation for which Britain's creative industries are internationally renowned.

The curators of this exhibition believe that great design equates to the maximum cultural significance produced within the parameters of a commercial brief, and that these twenty stories represent the attainment of that goal.

Love & Money exhibition opend at OZONE, Shinjuku park Tower, Tokyo, Japan. Then tours Hong Kong, Korea, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Australia and New Zealand.
