Designers have fallen down the proverbial rabbit hole, taking inspiration from fairytale worlds for these creations showcased at the London Design Festival 2009. A host of internationally acclaimed designers have pooled together this wonderfully weird collection for the V&A Museum.
Divided into three sections, first take a stroll in The Forest Glade to enter The Enchanted Castle, only to taper off in Heaven and Hell. Focusing on the thin line between design and art, this installment for the London Design Festival 2009 is a sight to behold.
