Ready Made Go 4 now open

- Written by Laura

The doors to the fourth edition of Ready Made Go are now open! Now in its fourth year, the one-of-a-kind exhibition concocted by the Ace team and Modern Design Review editor Laura Houseley is the only LDF show that displays design objects in the location for which they were created — and keeps them there forever. Starting with a wish list of objects from the hotel — which can range from the everyday (e.g. door handles) to the outlandish (a climbing wall) — Houseley scours the London design scene for the studios and makers best equipped to create them, matching designer to product.

The hand-picked designers that created pieces for this year’s show include; “Pinch” wall hooks by WD-DP, “Blanco e Nero” Games Table by M-L-XL , “Secant” tableware by Laetitia de Allegri, “Cakestand” by Minimalux and “Raised Ground” by Abigail Booth.

To celebrate the works of previous editions and pay tribute to the legacy of this one-of-a-kind project, Ready Made Go 4 have also included a special lobby exhibition of all 18 products created for Ace Hotel thus far, gathered together in a single display for the first time.
