“Known Unknowns” is now open to the public

On Thursday evening, this year’s Goldsmiths BA Design show, “Known Unknowns”, opened for the Industry Private View at the Old Truman Brewery in London, as part of Free Range graduate shows. Many guests from the design world, including several alumni of the course, dropped by to see the work of the class of 2016. It was a fun and lively event, with drinks provided by the generous sponsorships of Meantime Brewery and The Fat Walrus pub.

The exhibition included many eye-catching displays; go to our Facebook page for more photos of the show. “Known Unknowns” is still open to the public today and tomorrow (18-19 June) until 6 pm, and Monday 20 June until 4 pm. If you haven’t seen it yet, don’t miss it!
